System over, V6


Brief description

The exhaust system is designed to carry the exhaust gases away from the engine, ensuring low resistance to flow, a low noise level and long life. The exhaust system consists of two parts, the front section with three-way catalytic converter and rear section consisting of two silencers. Both silencers are a combination of resonance and absorption types.

The exhaust system is corrosion-protected as the front pipe, connecting pipe between the silencers and the silencers themselves are made of stainless 12% chrome steel. The outer casing is aluminized.

The exhaust system is rubber-mounted at seven points. To ensure good ground clearance, it runs through a channel in the floor pan.

When replacing the rear silencer, the system should be severed ahead of the rear silencer and a new silencer fitted. The system will then have an additional joint.

Heat shields

Heat shields are fitted over the exhaust system's hottest zones to protect exposed areas from heat radiation from the exhaust system.
