I replaced my truck's rusted out muffler (infosec.pub)

Turns out the rattling was coming from the heatshield of the DPF so I spent a day replacing a part which wasn't even the source of the issue. Well, atleast I've got a new exhaust now and did some underbody rust prevention while I was at it.

One of my biggest problems I guess is not even knowing what the parts are called or what they do or how things function and how they're built. I'll have to start so far up, you know? Not like I can Google "how to replace rinkymadink in a Honda Shmonkaflonk". I'd rather have to start with, like, "how does a car propel itself?" 💀
