A leaking exhaust system can cause an increase in fuel consumption with the possibilities of exhaust fumes leaking into the passenger compartment causing sickness and drowsiness. If you are in any doubt about the condition of your cars exhaust system Fast Fit are always happy to carry out a free inspection and give you an HONEST appraisal of its condition..

We carry many popular exhaust systems in stock and are able to obtain most exhaust parts within 1 hour from local suppliers. All our exhausts are covered by a two year warranty. We can also fit a new Catalytic Converter.

The Catalytic Converter (Cat) works by filtering the exhaust gases through an internal honeycomb section known as a Monolith or a Catalyst. This Monolith (made of either ceramic or metal) is coated with precious metals such as Platinum, Palladium and Rhodium that act as a filter for the harmful gases. Once these gases flow through the Monolith they are largely converted in a chemical reaction into non-harmful emissions such as water and carbon dioxide. The Catalytic Converter will work fine under normal driving conditions but it is important to observe certain precautions if it is to continue working efficiently.

The exhaust gases are constantly monitored by a Lambda Sensor that is positioned in the exhaust downpipe before the Cat. This sensor samples the gases and reports back to the Fuel Injection System. If there is not enough Oxygen in the gases then the system leans off the fuel injection very slightly.
