Template:Infobox vehicle part/sandbox A muffler is an item forming part of a vehicle. It can be found in three different tiers: old, average and performance.

Usage

Noise reduction

A muffler is used to reduce the noise caused by the vehicle's engine. The lower the condition of the muffler, the louder the engine will be, therefore attracting the attention of more zombies and from greater distances. The type of muffler also influences how loud a vehicle is. From loudest to softest, they are old, average, and performance.

It is possible to drive a vehicle without a muffler, however the noise caused by the engine will be significantly louder - multiplied by 2, instead of the muffler multiplier.

Installing/uninstalling

A muffler can be installed or uninstalled from a vehicle using a Wrench and the recipe learned for the Types|vehicle type. Each level of Mechanics will decrease the chance of causing damage and increase the chance of success, with level 5 resulting in no damage and 100% chance of success. It is not possible to mix car part types. For example, a sport class muffler cannot be fitted onto a heavy duty class vehicle.

Condition

Mufflers slowly lose condition while driving, and will degrade significantly quicker off-road. They cannot be repaired, meaning a new muffler must be salvaged from other vehicles or found in the world.
