Is the Exhaust Pipe of the Lynk & Co 01 Hidden?
1 Answers
The Lynk & Co 01 features a dual-exhaust layout with two exhaust pipes. The white version of the Lynk & Co 01 has hidden exhaust pipes, while the red version has exposed ones. The exhaust pipe is part of the engine's exhaust system, which mainly includes the exhaust manifold, exhaust pipe, and muffler. Typically, the three-way catalytic converter, which controls engine pollutant emissions, is also installed in the exhaust system. The exhaust pipe generally consists of a front pipe and a rear pipe. Here are some car exhaust pipe maintenance tips: 1. Waterproofing: When driving in the rain or washing your car, be sure to prevent water from entering the muffler, as this can lead to rust and affect the exhaust pipe's performance. If water accidentally enters the muffler, start the engine immediately to heat it up and expel the accumulated water from the muffler. This is particularly important for exhaust pipe maintenance. 2. Rust prevention: Preventing rust on the car's exhaust pipe isn't just about avoiding water. The best method is to apply anti-rust oil for comprehensive protection. First, remove the muffler and block the drain hole at the bottom. Then, add anti-rust oil to the flange, shake the muffler until the oil evenly coats the inside, and reinstall the muffler. After driving about 20 kilometers, remove the drain hole blockage. Performing this rust prevention maintenance twice a year can significantly reduce the risk of rust. 3. Cleaning: Since the exhaust pipe is often exposed to the outside but is connected to the car's interior, dirt buildup inside can affect its normal function. Improper driving may also allow harmful substances to enter the car, potentially causing more serious issues. Therefore, cleaning the exhaust pipe is an essential part of maintenance.
