Important:   When removing the centre silencer, a catalytic converter, an exhaust manifold or an exhaust manifold with catalytic converter, the exhaust system piece remaining in the vehicle must be secured against uncontrolled sagging. Bends in the flex pipe by as little as 5 - 10 angle degrees or a twist through +/- 0.5 ° from the specified installation position can lead to damage with subsequent complete failure of the flex pipe. The exhaust system fastening clamps must be replaced every time they are removed.
When replacing the exhaust system, the transport fixing must first be removed after installation and before commissioning. This should be stored for other work in which the exhaust system must be removed and used to secure the flex pipe.
8.   Attach transport fixing to flex pipe
Note:   The installation instruction (1) on the transport fixing must be observed.
