Functions of the exhaust system
Directing exhaust fumes away from passengers by pushing them out through the pipe located at the back.
Cleaning the chemical that is produced by burning fuel.
Shielding passengers and people on the road from the noise created by the engine.
In order for your vehicle to keep running at its peak performance level, it’s important to keep all vehicle maintenance items up-to-date, including an inspection of the exhaust system and muffler. It is important to know when exactly to replace the exhaust system. If you experience any of the following signs, contact your auto mechanic to schedule an appointment to have the exhaust system fixed:
Odd Vibrations
Vibrations coming from the steering wheel or gas pedal are a sure sign of an exhaust leak. You may also feel the whole car shake if the exhaust leak is big enough. These vibrations are a safety issue as well as a car health issue because they can alter your ability to control the vehicle with precision.
Odd Noises from the Engine
Most likely the first thing that you will notice if you need exhaust repair is increased engine noise. The exhaust system keeps the engine noise down so a leak will cause loud rumblings. Likely spots for an exhaust leak include the exhaust manifold and anywhere there are joints along with the exhaust system. An engine leak at the manifold can greatly increase engine volume and possibly allow harmful fumes to access the passenger cabin putting you at risk of being poisoned by the toxic fumes.
Decreased Fuel Efficiency
Fuel efficiency is a key component to keeping any vehicle long term. When buying a car, the cost of fuel per year and gas mileage are things to consider. A 3% increase in power translates to 3% less fuel used to achieve the same power output. When the exhaust is not performing at the level it is supposed to, you will notice that your fuel efficiency is decreasing. If you notice a drop in MPGs, visit a certified mechanic to have the problem diagnosed and repaired before it turns into a bigger problem.
