No Cold Air? This looks like a really clogged up home A/C filter right? It's an evaporator that on a vehicle is meant to allow air to flow through it and cool down your vehicle's A/C unit allowing it to work properly. This, however, is a seriously plugged up evaporator with very little air flow coming through! The A/C Evaporator did not get this way overnight, providing warning signals along the way such as the car wasn't cooling enough.

While your exhaust system helps reduce noise output from your vehicle, it also significantly reduces harmful emissions from being released into the air. When your muffler and exhaust system functions properly, it significantly reduces your vehicle's harmful impact on the environment. It also significantly improves the functionality of your vehicle and improve fuel mileage for your car, truck, SUV or Jeep.

An exhaust system is made up of numerous parts that work together to rid your car of the exhaust gases that are created during the combustion cycle, as your engine burns fuel. Each part of your exhaust system has an important role to play in removing exhaust gases away from the engine as quickly as possible, allowing another cycle of combustion to begin. The more quickly and efficiently an exhaust system does this the more efficiently an engine can run. The main parts of an exhaust system are an exhaust manifold, catalytic converter, oxygen sensors, exhaust pipes and the muffler.

These guys are great.. was looking for an honest mechanic after getting ripped off by a chain, and was referred here. They didn't try to upsell me on things I didn't need, they just took care of my problem and I was on my way. - Brent R (5 star review found on Google)

I've taken my car here on multiple occasions and found Taylor's to be honest and fairly priced. I've always had a quick turn around time and the work has been done correctly without the shady up-selling/unnecessary fixes so many other dealerships try to pull. I have, and will continue to, recommend Taylor's to my friends. - Mary M (5 star review found on Google)
