What should Huntsville vehicle owners know about exhausts and mufflers? Firstly, the muffler is only one part in the entire exhaust system. Its function is to regulate the exhaust system’s operational noise level. If you have ever witnessed vehicles with abnormally loud exhausts, especially noises like huffing or popping, then it is likely that this vehicle owner is dealing with a faulty muffler.
When functioning properly, the exhaust system of a car, truck or van will quietly and efficiently move gases away from the engine, where they were initially generated, and outside the vehicle via the tailpipe. How efficient your vehicle’s exhaust system is has a surprisingly large effect on overall automotive performance.
How often should you have your vehicle’s muffler inspected or swapped out? Jaguar Huntsville’s recommendation is to do this either at the seven-year mark or at the first sign of muffler-related issues.
