Everything from the muffler to the exhaust manifold on your Nissan relies on an intricate system to ensure that the exhaust from your Nissan engine is filtered through the tailpipe correctly. If the Gasket Exhaust inside this closed system is broken or worn out, there may be potential for leaks— or worse!
Exhaust gases are incredibly hot. These gases can be hot enough to scald or damage components near your exhaust manifold, as well as subsequent parts of your exhaust system. Your Nissan relies on a functional, dependable Gasket Exhaust to guarantee that these gases remain contained in the exhaust system and cleared out through the tailpipe.
A damaged Gasket Exhaust could cause potential exhaust gas leakage and a host of other issues. If the Gasket Exhaust on your Nissan becomes worn or compromised, you might notice a few symptoms:
1) You might hear a tapping or slight whistling sound.
A faulty Gasket Exhaust might cause leaks, which may make strange sounds while the engine on your Nissan is running. Hearing these sounds from the engine bay could mean that it may be time to get a gasket replacement.
2) You might experience a burning smell.
Once scorching exhaust gases escape, they may burn wiring or plastic parts near your engine and exhaust system. Although your Nissan comes equipped with heat shields and other heat-resistant parts to protect from exhaust heat, they aren't usually manufactured to protect against exhaust leaks from a bad gasket.
However, this goes beyond potential vehicle damage. An exhaust leak that occurs from a worn Gasket Exhaust can also cause harm to the environment. The exhaust gases are only supposed to go through the complete exhaust system where they pass through filters and converters in order to properly trap environmental hazards. When an exhaust system leaks, however, it can dump unfiltered exhaust gases full of toxins into the environment and even through the cabin filter and into your Nissan passenger cabin.
Be proactive against future car damage, and do what's necessary to keep vaporous toxins within your engine, and out of the atmosphere and your cabin, by fixing a faulty or compromised Gasket Exhaust with a new, premium Gasket Exhaust from Nissan Parts.
