3239197 - Introduction - EXHAUST PIPES AND SILENCERS

The engine's exhaust gases flow into two double manifolds (1) (steel), and then through two exhaust pipes (2) to the three-way catalytic converter (3) (see 1080). At the front of the exhaust pipe, there is a flexible component (4) for limiting the transmission of vibrations.The rear exhaust section comprises two silencers (5).Special guards limit the radiation of heat towards the body shell.The various components are supported by mountings and rubber rings secured to the underbody.
