CAN I STILL DRIVE WITH A BROKEN EXHAUST SYSTEM?
A broken exhaust isn’t legal or safe to drive, and it poses several safety and legal issues on the road. The exhaust on your vehicle is a crucial component that needs immediate attention, regardless of whether it is cracked, partially hanging off your car or has become completely detached.
Due to its location underneath your car, you may not even notice that it needs your attention, but you should keep an eye on it.
In addition to dangerous emissions, poor fuel economy, and system failure, failing to maintain your exhaust could result in fines from the police.
WHAT IS A CATBACK EXHAUST SYSTEM?
A catalytic converter is a device that reduces the amount of toxic gases and pollutants that are released into the atmosphere from internal combustion engines.
Full cat-back exhaust systems run from the tip of your exhaust to the catalytic converter to improve airflow throughout your vehicle and reduce emissions.
As a result of the cat-back system, the engine does not have to work as hard to eliminate exhaust fumes. By reducing the resistance, the engine is under less load, which reduces fuel consumption.
As a result of the easier flow of exhaust through better mufflers and larger tubing, cat-backs generally increase performance, improve the sound, and reduce weight. Your catalytic converter will also oxidise dangerous gases like unburned hydrocarbons and nitrogen.
