1. Measure the distance between marks (it should be 80 mm).
Note. Tags are located between the catalytic converter and vibration damper (under the gear lever).
2. Mark the middle of the distance between the marks...
3....and make an additional mark with a felt-tip pen.
Attention! Place a screen made of refractory and heat-resistant material between the pipe and the bottom of the car.
4. Cut the pipe according to the applied additional mark.
5. Turn off two nuts of fastening of a reception pipe...
6.... and remove the springs.
7. Clean the exhaust manifold flange from the remnants of the old gasket.
8. Remove the pipe bracket from the cushion (see «Replacement of pillows of a suspension bracket of system of release of the fulfilled gases») and remove the downpipe assembly with the catalytic converter.
9. Install the parts in the reverse order of removal. Install a new gasket between the exhaust manifold and downpipe. Connection of elements of system of release of the fulfilled gases carry out the special compression couplings which are available on sale.
The additional and main mufflers are replaced in the same way.
To replace the main muffler, it is necessary to cut the system between the marks located near the left spring of the rear suspension.
To replace the additional muffler, it is necessary to cut the system in two places:
between catalytic converter and vibration damper (under the gear lever)...
...and near the left rear suspension spring.
Remove the vibration damper from the old section of the exhaust system...
... for which it is necessary to unscrew the two mounting bolts, and install it on a new section.
