What is a "muffler"?
A muffler is a part of a vehicle's exhaust system that reduces the noise produced by the engine. It works by using a series of chambers and tubes that help cancel out the sound waves created by the engine's exhaust gases. The muffler allows the gases to flow smoothly through the system while lowering the noise, making the vehicle quieter. It is an important component for meeting noise regulations and ensuring a more pleasant driving experience. Over time, mufflers can rust or become damaged, so they may need to be replaced.
