The first step in servicing and repairing the Exhaust Pipe requires users to elevate their vehicle before producing support. Start by removing protective shields when needed before extracting both rear exhaust system and
Catalytic Converter from the vehicle. First remove the electrical connector of the
Oxygen Sensor and then separate the three nuts at the
Exhaust Manifold. The exhaust hanger bracket and the entire front pipe assembly with its exhaust seal need to be detached for service followed by disposal of the seal. Installation requires you to place a fresh exhaust seal on the Exhaust Manifold before installing the front pipe while securing it at the exhaust hanger bracket. Secure the three manifold exhaust nuts by using 50 nm torque value which corresponds to 39 ft. Lbs measurement. Reinstall the Oxygen Sensor electrical connector before placing the Catalytic Converter together with the rear exhaust system into position. The procedure ends with protective shield reinstallments when needed together with safety stand removal and vehicle lowering.
