EXHAUST SYSTEM MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR AND HOW IMPORTANT IT IS
Your exhaust system, muffler, and catalytic converter are crucial components of your vehicle.
It is essential to ensure that they are properly cared for and performing optimally. It could be a matter of life or death!
What Does the Exhaust System Do?
Basically, a solid exhaust system ensures that your vehicle runs properly. Its vital function is the diversion of hazardous exhaust fumes emitted by your vehicle’s engine. When the exhaust system is not functioning correctly, bad things may occur. Your car’s engine may deteriorate. What is scarier is the possible deadly carbon monoxide build up in the passenger area.
Additionally, an exhaust system that is effective should reduce emissions and could possibly even contribute to fuel economy improvement. Rely on the professionals at BTR Chicago In. for all of your muffler and exhaust maintenance and repair.
Exhaust Problem Indicators
A few warning signs may indicate problems with your exhaust pipe (tailpipe), catalytic converter, muffler, or exhaust system.

Check Engine Light
When your catalytic converter begins to fail, it often triggers your dashboard display’s check engine light. This sign is also best investigated by professionals in auto repair.
Rattling Sounds
Often, a dying catalytic converter can make noises as if someone were shaking up a penny-filled metal box. You should be aware that your catalytic converter is among an exhaust system’s most expensive components. For this reason, it is best never to take a chance. If you hear this noise, have it inspected right away.
Noisy Exhaust Sounds
