Exhaust Repairs & Exhaust System Maintenance in Taunton

Professional exhaust repairs & maintenance in Taunton. MJ Auto Centre provide diagnostic inspections, repair or replacement of silencers, pipes, catalytic converters and mounts to keep your vehicle performing safely and efficiently.

Why your exhaust system matters

Your exhaust system directs harmful gases away from the engine and cabin, reduces noise, improves fuel efficiency and helps your vehicle meet emissions standards. Key components include:

• Silencers & back boxes
  
  

• Pipes & hangers
  
  

• Catalytic converters
  
  

• Sensors and DPFs
  
  

Over time, corrosion, leaks or damage can cause louder noise, reduced performance, higher emissions and potential MOT failures.

Our technicians can quickly diagnose and repair issues such as:

• Rusted, cracked or corroded exhaust sections
