My jetta aways got 34mpg, but lately have been getting around 28-30. Last night the check engine light came on and the exhaust sounded load under the car, would an exhaust leak be the cause of bad gas mileage?

Could be. What year is it, and what engine/tranny combination? If the CEL is on, why not just have it scanned? Many chain auto parts stores will scan it for free. Of course, you get what you pay for, a scan by someone who, besides being clueless, wants to sell you parts. The Cap'n (whose Jettas get 50 mpg!)
