What is an exhaust?

Most will think of the exhaust at first as the pipe protruding from the rear of the car where gases are emitted. However, the exhaust is a system and consists of more parts than you may initially see: the exhaust starts from the engine and continues through the underside to the rear bumper. This system ensures that released gases become less harmful, and that the noise produced by the engine is dampened. When the engine consumes fuel a chemical reaction occurs. In this combustion process, temperatures can reach 900 degrees Celsius. With the exhaust system, temperatures are brought down, and soot and harmful gases such as nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons are filtered out of the gases. Therefore, the exhaust is an important part of the car that needs to be replaced once in a while.

When should I have my exhaust replaced?

Leakage of gaskets.
: A gasket ensures the connection and sealing of different parts of the exhaust system.

Cracked or broken suspension rubbers
: suspension rubbers can dry out resulting in them breaking or cracking which can also cause the exhaust system to break down.

Loose or broken pipes and baffles.
: Rust in the exhaust system can cause pipes and baffles to become loose and break off, which can cause noise while driving.

Torn off muffler brackets: the muffler bracket holds the muffler in place. Rust can cause the muffler to break off.

Wear from the inside
: aggressive acids and condensation are released during the combustion process, these cause wear from the inside due to rust.

Clues in which you can recognize that your exhaust needs replacement:

– The motor overheats

– Car pulls slower or uses more fuel

– More smoke is released when you drive

– A lot of noise occurs during driving

– You smell strange gases

– You see rust spots on the exhaust

– The exhaust hangs lower

Why do I need to have my exhaust replaced?

exhaust system, fuel consumption is optimized.

+ To protect the environment: when exhaust gases are not properly
are filtered then it is extra harmful to the environment.

+ For your own safety: if the exhaust leaks there is a good chance that the
toxic gases enter your car.

+ To keep driving comfortably: the engine produces a lot of
sound, and with a good exhaust system you and others will have no
bothered by the noise.

+ For a MOT inspection: to comply with all environmental and
safety requirements, the exhaust system must be in good condition.

+ Preventing penalties: in case of a leak or too much noise during the
driving may receive a fine.

Due to the high temperatures and heavy vibrations, the exhaust system has a lot to endure. Given the important function the exhaust has, it is important to ensure that it manages to function properly. Continuing to drive with a beshad exhaust can affect the engine, so taking measures in time will prevent further damage to the car.

What does it cost to replace an exhaust?
