The muffler is a very important component of your vehicle's exhaust system. The exhaust system has two main roles: one is decreasing the amount of noise the exhaust system makes and the other is to filter the exhaust gases coming from the engine. It is a part of your vehicle that you probably rarely think about, but if there is an issue, you should not ignore it.
The engine in your vehicle is loud because it produces a lot of power through combustion. Every time the engine’s cylinders ignite the air to fuel mixture, there is an explosion. There are about 1,000 explosions every single minute. This creates a lot of noise. The muffler on your vehicle helps suppress the noise. If the muffler is bad, your vehicle will become extremely noisy.
The muffler is positioned between the catalytic converter and the exhaust outlet. It is one of many components that work together to reduce noise. This process is called destructive interference.
The average muffler has a lifespan of 40,000 to 80,000 miles, or around five to seven years. There are many factors that will lead to its eventual failure. These include everyday wear and tear along with driving conditions, road debris, weather and road salt. To help extend the lifespan of your muffler, wash the undercarriage regularly.
