Nissan Sentra Exhaust Systems

An exhaust system is an essential part of cars made by Nissan and other manufacturers. Having a working exhaust system will help increase the performance of your Nissan Sentra. If you need to buy a new exhaust system, you should know how to buy one, the features and functions of exhaust systems, and how to install one in your Sentra.

In a Nissan Sentra, the essential parts of exhaust systems are the exhaust pipes, mounting rubbers, muffler, and exhaust manifold. There are five main functions of exhaust systems in vehicles like the Nissan Sentra:

• Control the noise of the vehicle.
• Move fumes away from passengers.
• Improve engine performance.
• Enhance the cars fuel consumption.
• Reduces emissions from fuel combustion into less harmful gases.

A muffler is a commonly replaced component within an exhaust system. This piece keeps the engine of your car running quietly. It is relatively simple to change out a muffler. The steps entail:

1. Make sure the car has cooled down for at least 45 minutes, then jack your Nissan Sentra up if needed so you can get under it easily.
2. Use a 17 millimeter socket and a ratchet to remove two nuts and bolts holding the old muffler to the rest of the exhaust system.
3. Remove the old muffler from your Nissan Sentra
4. Take the new muffler and install it on to the three hangers that hold it.
5. Put the replacement oil gasket and put it in a hole over the muffler.
6. Install the replacement nuts and bolts to connect the new muffler to the rest of the exhaust system.
7. Start the car and listen for any exhaust system leaks. If there are none, installation is complete.

• Decide if you need to buy an entire exhaust system or just specific parts. Individual components of the exhaust system can be replaced without having to replace the whole system. It is more likely that you will only need to replace one part.
• Whether you need to purchase an entire exhaust system or just specific parts, ensure that all the parts are compatible with the year of your Nissan Sentra.
• When buying exhaust system replacement components, find components to match the ones that are currently installed on the vehicle.
• Consider the material you will want to use for your components. Different grades of steel are common choices, as they are durable, corrosion-resistant, and will dent instead of crack in cases of impact, meaning that your exhaust stays safely contained inside the exhaust chamber.
