Shopping for Exhaust Clamp
The exhaust system is the piping that's used to guide reaction exhaust gases away from the controlled combustion inside the car engine. If you're driving with a loose exhaust clamp, it can be very detrimental to your vehicle as the gases may leak out of the system and into your vehicle's cabin. This can cause performance to falter and put passenger safety at risk. If you're driving with a loose exhaust clamp, then it's time for you to do something about it. Here are steps on how to tighten the clamp on your exhaust.
Difficulty level: moderate
Things you'll need:
- Jack stands
- Repair manual
- Floor jack
- Socket set
- Torque wrench
Step 1: Keep your repair manual for reference purposes. You may find in the manual suggestions for torque values for the exhaust clamp bolts. Remember that proper torque application must be used to guarantee that the exhaust clamps will create an airtight seal and won't deform the exhaust piping because of over-tightening.
Step 2: Park your car on a surface where you can safely raise it with a floor jack. If possible, do this inside your garage or on any flat surface. Before starting, make sure that your engine has totally cooled down because the piping will be too hot due to the exhaust gases.
Step 3: Slip the floor jack underneath the side of your car where the exhaust system is found. Raise the jack high enough for you to be able to work safely under the automobile. Situate the jack stands where they should be under the chassis. If you don't know where to properly place the stands, you can always look at the manual for help.
Step 4: Check the piping for any damage or rust that could possibly cause leaks. If the exhaust clamps are loose, the exhaust system may rattle against the chassis, which can lead to fractures in the piping. Before tightening the clamp, make sure that it's free from any damage.
Step 5: Take your torque wrench and set it to the suggested torque rating. Use a socket head to tighten all of the clamp bolts. Start at the front and work your way back.
Step 6: Once you have tightened all the exhaust clamp bolts, remove the jack stands and lower your vehicle. Rev up your engine and listen to the sound of the exhaust from outside the car. If there are still popping noises or hissing air coming out from the exhaust piping area, then this an indication that there's still a leak and you must have this fixed.
With these six steps, you can tighten your exhaust clamp without even taking it to the mechanic. All you need are the right tools, a flat surface, and you're good to go. Good luck!
What Is an Exhaust Clamp?
Exhaust clamps hold together the exhaust system's various parts and pipes. They can withstand both the intense heat of exhaust gases and the vibrations produced by your vehicle as you drive over various road surfaces.
How Much Does an Exhaust Clamp Replacement Cost?
A replacement exhaust clamp can cost anywhere between $5 and $90. Its exact price varies based on various factors, such as fit, location, and material. You may also have to spend on labor costs if you bring your vehicle to an auto repair center to fix or replace a faulty clamp.
