Users have reported several frequent issues with the exhaust system on the Lancia Lybra :

• Excessive black smoke and power loss, often related to fuel injection or clogging
• Loud exhaust noise caused by leaks or deteriorated joints without dashboard warnings
• Clicking or clanking sounds during driving, potentially due to loose mounts or aged silent blocks

Professional diagnostics are recommended if you notice these symptoms for accurate control unit scanning and sensor checks.

The exhaust system comprises several key components that work together to control emissions and engine performance :

• Catalytic converter (also called catalytic converter)
• Exhaust manifold connecting the engine exhaust ports
• Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) for diesel variants
• Exhaust mounting kits including silent blocks and brackets
• Sensors such as lambda sensors that monitor exhaust gases for fuel control

Each part is designed to meet strict European emissions standards while ensuring durability and efficiency.
