Checking the exhaust system
| - Checking should be done with the engine cold, so it's best to do it before the first day of the current trip or not earlier than three hours after the engine is switched off. Sway Check the condition of the exhaust system, from the engine to the exhaust outlet. Ideally, this test should be performed at the winch lifted the car when from below to it there is free access. If the hoist is not available, Poddomkratte car and reliably establish it on support.
- Inspect pipes and pipe fittings for signs of leaks, strong corrosion and mechanical damage. Check the condition and mounting of clamps and hangers system.
 | Suspensions disposed near the catalytic converter is usually made of heat-resistant rubber, characterized in red. |
 | The most likely place the appearance of leaks - welds |
- Simultaneously examine the car bottom on presence of holes, corrosion, dispersed seams and the other defects that allow the penetration of exhaust gases into the interior of the vehicle. Seal all openings suitable sealant.
- The exhaust system is often a source of noise and other unpleasant sounds. Shake and tug pipes, mufflers and catalytic converter. If any of the components in contact with the body elements or suspension parts, exhaust systems replace fasteners. More design of the exhaust system examined in Chapter power supply system and exhaust system.
- Look supplied to the lambda probe wiring. Replace if necessary mounted on the receiving pipe lambda probe.
- Inspection of the inner surface of the exhaust pipe to determine the current operating condition of the engine. The composition of the sediments in a pipe speaks about quality motor settings. If the pipe from the inside black and sooty, it may indicate that you need to carefully check the fuel system.
