The engine exhaust gases flow through manifold (1) to the three-way catalytic converter (2) (see 1080) to which the exhaust pipe is connected by means of a flange. At the front of the exhaust pipe, there is a flexible component (3) for limiting the transmission of vibrations. The rear exhaust section comprises two silencers (4).Special guards limit the radiation of heat towards the bodyshell.The various components are supported by mountings (5) and rubber rings (6) secured to the underbody.
