Front exhaust system with three-way catalytic converter, 4-cyl.
|
1.
|
Remove the bypass pipe with valve.
Note
|
There is an O-ring at the bypass pipe's attachment to the turbo intake pipe.
|
|
2.
|
Remove the exhaust manifold's heat shield.
|
3.
|
Remove the oxygen sensor.
|
4.
|
Loosen the two upper nuts at the connection between the turbo/front exhaust system.
|
6.
|
Remove the lower front cover.
|
7.
|
Loosen the third nut at the connection between the turbo/front exhaust system.
|
8.
|
Separate the pipe joint between the front and rear exhaust systems.
|
9.
|
Remove the clips from the rubber mounts.
|
10.
|
Carefully withdraw the rubber mounts.
|
11.
|
Lower the front exhaust system.
Important
|
The flexible section at the front of the exhaust system should not be bent out of line by more than 7°, i.e. if the front exhaust system is allowed to hang, it must not bend more than the sag caused by its own weight.
|
If the pipe is overloaded, permanent deformation of the components will result. This can cause noise and leakage, and damage at a later stage.
|
|
|
Important
|
When fitting the front exhaust system to the turbo, the nuts should be tightened alternately to avoid distorting the flange. The flange must not abut against the turbo connection flange.
|
Ensure that the system hangs straight so that no stresses occur during fitting.
|
|
Fit in reverse order.
Note
|
Coat the studs sparingly with Molycote 1000, part no. 30 20 971 or similar.
