The Job of Your Car's Exhaust System
When you are on the road, your car produces various gases, and some of these fumes are harmful to humans. To prevent these gases from leaking inside the vehicle, an important system is built within the car -- the exhaust system. Thanks to this component, you can rest assured that you and your passengers will not inhale carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxide, and other toxic fumes while you are inside the car.

Parts of the Exhaust System
The whole exhaust system is complicated and composed of several parts. Here are a few of the most important ones:
-    Header - also called the car exhaust manifold, this component is responsible for collecting the gases from all the cylinders inside the car.
-    Cat - short for catalytic converter, this part of the exhaust system "converts" harmful emissions, like CO and NO2, to nontoxic gases. This is possible because of the "catalysts," such as rhodium, palladium, and platinum, present in the system.
-    Muffler - one of the most prominent parts of the system, the muffler is responsible for muffling out the loud sounds produced by the vehicle when running.
-    Tailpipe - also known as the car exhaust pipe, this metal part is located at the rear end of the vehicle. It is where the gases produced by the car are emitted.
