Vehicle Exhaust System

 

What is an exhaust system?

 

The exhaust system is one of the most significant parts of your car, but its economical working is occasionally overlooked. The exhaust has a vital and important role of carrying the harmful gases produced by the combustion of fuel inside your engine and separating them safely into the atmosphere away from the car.

 

What is the job of an exhaust?

 

The exhaust has several roles in your car including keeping your car silent, helping your engine run correctly, maintaining fuel efficiency, and reducing your emissions. Therefore, it is important for the maintenance of your car and your own safety that you keep your car's exhaust in good condition.

 

Depending on the overall system design, the exhaust gas may flow through one or more of:

·         Exhaust manifold also known as outlet manifold.

·         Exhaust flexi pipe.

·         Catalytic converter for petrol  cars to reduce air pollution.

·         Diesel particular filter (DPF) for diesel cars to reduce air pollution.

·         Exhaust downpipe also known as exhaust middle box.

·         Rear box also known as silencer, to reduce noise.

 

These valuable parts fit into the exhaust system and essentially clean the harmful fumes before they can escape out into the atmosphere. A proficient and maintained exhaust system will allow your car to work more easily. This means more power, speed, and efficiency for your everyday journeys.
