Everything from the muffler to the exhaust manifold on your Nissan hinges on a compact structure to help guarantee that the exhaust from your Nissan engine is filtered through the tailpipe in the right way. If the Gasket Exhaust in your engine exhaust system becomes old or weathered, you may experience leaks, or something far worse can happen.
Exhaust gases are hot — extremely hot. These hot gases are enough to potentially scald or destroy components surrounding the exhaust manifold, as well as subsequent parts of your exhaust system. Your Nissan requires an operative, high-quality Gasket Exhaust to guarantee that these gases remain contained in the exhaust system and cleared out through the tailpipe.
A damaged Gasket Exhaust could trigger exhaust gas leaks and a host of other issues. If the Gasket Exhaust on your Nissan becomes worn or too old, you may experience some of the following:
1) You may hear a tapping or hissing sound.
A failed Gasket Exhaust may begin leaking, which could lead to tapping or slight whistling sounds while your Nissan engine is running. Hearing these sounds from the engine bay could mean that you just might need to get a new gasket.
2) You may smell a burning odor.
Once scorching exhaust gases escape, they could burn your engine wiring or the plastic parts near the exhaust system and engine. While your Nissan is equipped with heat shields and other heat-resistant parts to protect against heated exhaust, they aren't usually manufactured to protect against exhaust leaks from a bad gasket.
In addition to potential vehicle damage, an exhaust leak that occurs from a faulty Gasket Exhaust could be harmful to the environment. The exhaust gases are only supposed to go through the entire exhaust system where they move through filters and converters to trap environmental toxins. When an exhaust system leaks, however, it can expel unfiltered exhaust gases full of toxins into the environment and potentially through your cabin filter and then enter into your cabin, where you and your passengers can possibly inhale the toxins.
Be proactive against future car damage, and keep toxic exhaust gases within your engine, and out of the atmosphere and your cabin, by uninstalling a bad or failing Gasket Exhaust with a new, premium Gasket Exhaust from Nissan Parts.
