Its not going to hurt so why not. Sounds like you need a camera inspection of the drain to definitely know whats going on. Set aside about $250 and get it done.

That's not necessarily true. It may be cracked, a separated joint, bad connection to the sewer stub......That's what a camera is for. Perhaps the whole problem can be remedied with a spot repair rather than a line replacement.Why not just rent a power snake and be done with it,and your not PVC to the street or you wouldn't have roots in the line.
An elbow in the line?? Probably more like the roots trapped some paper.About ten feet in at (I'm guessing) a bend in the pipe I met resistance.
