EXHAUST PIPE INSTALLATION


  1. INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. A01J7NV

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

      Minimum length
      40 mm (1.57 in.)

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

    2. Install the front pipe to the pipe support.

    3. A01J65VE03

      Install a new gasket to the outlet pipe.

      Tech Tips

      Using a plastic-faced hammer, uniformly strike the gasket so that the gasket and exhaust pipe are properly fit.

      Note


      • Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.

      • Do not reuse the gasket.

      • To ensure a proper seal, do not use the front pipe to force the gasket onto the outlet pipe.

    4. Install the front pipe with the 2 compression springs and 2 bolts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      43 N*m  { 438 kgf*cm, 32 ft.*lbf }

  2. INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (for Bank 1 Sensor 1)


    1. A01J5DAE01

      Using SST, install the sensor.

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

      Tech Tips

      Use a torque wrench with a fulcrum length of 30 cm (11.81 in.).

    2. A01J7L3E02

      Attach the 3 wire clamps to the vehicle body.

    3. Connect the sensor connector.

  3. INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install the center pipe to the 3 pipe supports.

    2. Install a new gasket and the center pipe to the front pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      48 N*m  { 489 kgf*cm, 35 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Do not reuse the gasket.

  4. INSTALL TAILPIPE ASSEMBLY


    1. Install the tailpipe to the pipe support.

    2. Install a new gasket and the tailpipe to the center pipe with the 2 bolts and 2 nuts. Alternately tighten the bolts in several passes.

      Torque:
      48 N*m  { 489 kgf*cm, 35 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Do not reuse the gasket.

  5. CONNECT CABLE TO NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL

  6. PERFORM INITIALIZATION


    1. Perform initialization Click here.

      Note

      Certain systems need to be initialized after disconnecting and reconnecting the cable from the negative (-) battery terminal.

  7. CHECK FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAKS

    If gas is leaking, tighten the problem areas to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
