Note. If the noise level from the exhaust system is increased, check its tightness. To do this, start the engine and inspect the entire system. By running your hand over the possible leakage areas, without touching the components, you will immediately feel the gas leakage. If necessary, replace rusted and burnt components.
Warning! Allow the exhaust system to cool before repairing, as it reaches high temperatures during engine operation.
Exhaust gases are toxic, and poisoning occurs unnoticed, so be sure to open the garage door before starting the engine!
Note: If it is not possible to replace the defective unit with a new one, you can temporarily restore its functionality by applying a metal patch to the damaged area and securing it with clamps or wire. It is recommended to place a sheet of asbestos under the patch.
In addition, auto parts stores sell special kits for restoring exhaust system components, which can be used to temporarily repair damage to the system in order to get to a car service center or garage.
