Exhaust Renault Rapid (1985-2001)

The exhaust system of the Renault Rapid is composed of connected parts including the manifold, catalytic converter, expansion chamber, diesel particulate filter (DPF), and muffler. Its main functions are to evacuate burnt gases from the engine cylinders safely to the rear of the vehicle, reduce noise, limit pollution emissions, and comply with environmental regulations.

Some specific technical details for Renault Rapid exhaust components include :

• Complete exhaust (ref. 7700018114) length: 1110 mm, mounting spacing: 75 x 39 mm, with plate fixation, suited for agricultural or utility models.
• Exhaust valve for Rapid Van 1.0 petrol: 238 mm diameter, solid disc type on front axle side.
• Exhaust pipe (Rapid Van 1.2 petrol): lengths 600 mm or 536 mm, weight 1.44 kg, reference RR-195.
• Rear muffler ROMAX compatible with Rapid petrol versions 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, and diesel 1.9, ref. 42 4 111.
• VEGAZ exhaust muffler for Rapid Kasten, new condition, ref. RS-258.

Note: Verify compatibility with your exact motorisation and year model (e.g. F40/G40 versions).

The exhaust system should be inspected every 20,000 km to prevent leaks, vibrations, or test failures. For diesel models equipped with a DPF (diesel particulate filter), it is recommended to drive once monthly at about 3000 rpm on a motorway for several kilometres to enable natural regeneration of the filter. Replacement is necessary if the DPF becomes clogged or damaged.

Replacement is advised to :

• Reduce excessive noise or engine power loss.
• Ensure compliance with environmental laws and pass the vehicle's technical inspection.
• Avoid dangerous vibrations or parts detaching from the vehicle.

Note the replacement of exhaust components is complex due to rust and welded pipes—prefer professional service and consider replacing the entire exhaust line except catalytic converter and flexible pipes.

The main components are :

• The exhaust manifold collecting gases from cylinders.
• The catalytic converter which reduces harmful emissions chemically.
• The expansion chamber that helps control gas flow and noise.
• The diesel particulate filter (DPF) on diesel engines, trapping soot particles.
• The muffler which reduces the overall noise from the exhaust gases.

These parts are connected by pipes, clamps, and flanges ensuring system integrity and leak prevention.
