Your car’s exhaust system is vital for a few different reasons. First, it helps keep your car quiet. But it also allows the bad gases created by your engine to escape, preventing damage to the engine.
If you’re having exhaust system problems, Rite-Price Auto Service Centrecan help. We’ll examine the exhaust system and determine if the problem can be fixed, or if you need a replacement.
Signs of exhaust issues include increased engine noise, a decrease in fuel efficiency, a noticeable exhaust smell in the cabin, or visible rust or holes in the exhaust pipes.
What is the purpose of the catalytic converter in the exhaust system?
The catalytic converter reduces harmful emissions by converting toxic gases from the engine into less harmful substances before they exit the exhaust system.
How often should I have my exhaust system inspected?
It’s recommended to have your exhaust system inspected annually or whenever you notice any unusual noises, smells, or changes in your vehicle's performance.
Can a faulty exhaust system affect engine performance?
