BMW X6 Exhaust Systems

Any exhaust system aims to accomplish three main tasks. The first one is transporting exhaust gases from an engine to the atmosphere. The next purpose is to reduce or silence the noise of the exhaust for people inside and out a vehicle. Last but not least, this mechanism aims to catalyze the reaction between harmful hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide to form carbon dioxide and water vapor. The BMW X6 exhaust system also fulfills these tasks and features a chain of components. If one exhaust unit fails, the chain will be broken and the mechanism will be out of function.

Before you replace the whole exhaust system, let's learn its main components and their functions. The first link of the chain is an X6 manifold. This item burns leftover fuel. The next unit is a catalytic converter that reduces the number of dangerous elements in your vehicle's exhaust. The next station of the combustion gases is a muffler that reduces the noise created by the exhaust flow. A BMW resonator has the same task and makes your driving as silent as possible. A tail pipe is the final destination for the exhaust gases.
