Does Your Car’s Exhaust Need Repairing?
Modern vehicle exhausts last much longer than exhausts made back in the 1980’s and before. They also have
a range of added sensors and components designed to help reduce your car’s emissions.
For example, modern car exhausts often have at least two oxygen sensors, a catalytic converter, a catalytic converter temperature sensor and a range of exhaust mufflers.
If one of the Oxygen sensors, the catalytic converter, or a catalytic converter temperature sensor go out of range, this can bring the Check Engine Light or other warning lights up on your car’s dash.
In this case, our highly skilled, trained and qualified mechanics can use our state of the art scan tool technology to read the trouble codes and live data from your exhaust sensors.
