Introduction - EXHAUST PIPES AND SILENCERS

1.1, 1.2 8v

The engine exhaust gases flow through manifold (1) to the three-way catalytic converter (2) (see 1080).

At the front of the exhaust pipe, there is a flexible component (3) for limiting the transmission of vibrations.

The rear exhaust section comprises a single silencer (4).

Special guards limit the radiation of heat towards the bodyshell.

The various components are supported by mountings and rubber rings (5) secured to the underbody.

1.3 JTD 16v

Structure

The engine exhaust gases flow through the manifold to the turbocharger and then to the oxidizing catalytic converter (1) Characteristic of working principle 1080B exhaust emission control system.

At the front of the exhaust pipe, there is a flexible component (2) for limiting the transmission of vibrations.

The rear section of the exhaust pipe consists of an intermediate pipe (3) and the rear silencer (4).

Special guards limit the radiation of heat towards the bodyshell.

The various components are supported by rubber rings (5) secured to the underbody.
