How do I know if there is problem with my exhaust system?
There are a number of tell-tale signs that there may be something wrong with your auto exhaust system. Noise and visible smoke are the biggest indicators. But, even more dangerous than noise and smoke is the harmful carbon monoxide fumes that have the potential to leak into the inside of your vehicle from holes in the catalytic converter or muffler.
What is an exhaust system?
The exhaust system is comprised of several different components, all of which work together to reduce noise, harmful emissions and direct exhaust fumes away from the motorist.
- Catalytic Converter: Designed to collect carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxide and convert these dangerous gases into less harmful byproducts such as oxygen, water vapor, and carbon dioxide.
- Muffler: A metal container with holes and chambers, which is designed to reduce exhaust noise caused by the engine.
- Resonator: Works directly with the muffler to drown out engine noises.
- Tail Pipe: Located at the rear of the car, the tail pipe directs exhaust gases away from the vehicle and its occupants.
