Exhaust Manifold with Catalytic Converters and Attachments, Assembly Overview

‹› Disconnect the batteries before removing front exhaust pipes with catalytic  converters. 

‹›   When installing exhaust pipes, ensure that the flange connection  after the catalytic converter seals tightly.   Leaks in this area produce  pulsations

in the exhaust. This allows ambient air to reach the lambda probe  after catalytic converter and the lambda regulation will be disturbed. 

‹› Replace self-locking nuts.
