EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION


  1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install 2 new gaskets to the exhaust manifold RH and exhaust manifold LH.

    2. A01626I

      Install the front exhaust pipe assembly with 4 new bolts and 4 new nuts.

      Torque:
      39 N*m  { 398 kgf*cm, 29 ft.*lbf }

  2. CONNECT HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR


    1. A015ZX3

      Rotate the heated oxygen sensors 4 times counterclockwise, and then install them to the front exhaust pipe assembly by hand.

    2. A015ZGIE01

      Using SST, tighten the 2 heated oxygen sensors.

      SST
      09224-00010
      Torque:
      with SST
      40 N*m  { 408 kgf*cm, 30 ft.*lbf }
      without SST
      44 N*m  { 449 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

      Tech Tips


      • Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.8 in.). If the fulcrum length is not as specified, calculate the torque value based on the specification for when SST is not used Click here.

      • Make sure that SST and the wrench are connected in a straight line.

    3. A015ZMNE01

      Connect the 2 grommets to the floor panel.

  3. INSTALL FRONT CENTER FLOOR BRACE


    1. A01637A

      Install the front center floor brace with the 4 bolts.

      Torque:
      7.4 N*m  { 76 kgf*cm, 66 in.*lbf }

  4. INSTALL REAR NO. 1 FLOOR PANEL BRACE


    1. A015YY2

      Install the rear No. 1 floor panel brace with the 4 bolts.

      Torque:
      19 N*m  { 194 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf }

  5. INSTALL NO. 2 FLOOR UNDER COVER

  6. INSTALL NO. 1 FLOOR UNDER COVER

  7. INSTALL EXHAUST PIPE DAMPER


    1. A0161EI

      Install the exhaust pipe damper with the 2 bolts.

      Torque:
      19 N*m  { 194 kgf*cm, 14 ft.*lbf }

  8. INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. A01624S

      Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the compression springs.

      Minimum length
      41.5 mm (1.634 in.)

      If the free length is less than the minimum, replace the compression spring.

    2. Fully insert a new gasket to the front exhaust pipe assembly.

    3. A015ZMRE01

      Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the new gasket until its surface is flush with the front exhaust pipe assembly.

      Note


      • Be sure to install the gasket in the correct direction.

      • Do not reuse the gasket.

      • Do not damage the gasket.

      • Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipe when connecting it.

    4. Connect the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the 6 exhaust pipe supports.

    5. A0162QN

      Install the tail exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 440 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

  9. INSPECT FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK
