Professional muffler replacement

The car’s muffler belongs to the so-called vehicle exhaust system. Unfortunately, for many people the exhaust system is “of little importance”, so the vehicle has problems with exhaust gas, pollutes the air and works very loudly. A faulty muffler causes a significant reduction in driving comfort, and in addition, not taking into account repairs – we simply break the law, because we pollute the environment and exceed noise standards.

The muffler consists of front, middle and end parts, and its replacement, although not difficult, requires appropriate experience and the use of appropriate equipment.

How does a muffler work and when to replace it

A car’s muffler is an essential part of the exhaust and sound-damping system. It therefore acts as an exhaust gas duct and a component responsible for reducing noise. There are several types of car mufflers, including:

• absorption silencers,
• reflective silencers,
• interference suppressors,
• combined silencers.

The car’s exhaust system and the muffler located in it are designed to reduce the noise generated during combustion of the fuel mixture. This noise is the result of the exhaust gas escaping from the combustion chamber, where it creates a huge overpressure generating a loud noise.

The silencer itself, creating the exhaust system, is an extremely important element of the vehicle and guarantees driving comfort and the elimination of many harmful particles, for which:

• catalysts,
• particulate filters.

When and where to replace the muffler

The exhaust system and silencer should be replaced when:

• car operation becomes louder,
• the lights on the quality of exhaust gases discharged into the atmosphere come on
• the technical inspection revealed irregularities in the exhaust fumes.

The exhaust system in most cars is replaced in batches, it is rarely necessary to replace it completely. The front muffler and the end muffler are most often exposed to damage and wear. The middle part usually contains catalysts and filters, wears slower and less often, although it also requires replacement during the life of the vehicle.

The correct operation of the entire exhaust system guarantees driving comfort and proper exhaust gas discharge. All the more, it is worth choosing us as a professional service for checking the technical condition and replacing the exhaust gas system.
