Removing
1. We prepare the car for work (see «Preparing the car for maintenance and repair»).
Attention! To avoid burns, work should be carried out after the parts of the exhaust system have cooled to a safe temperature.
2. We process all threaded connections with penetrating lubricant.
3. Using a 13 mm spanner wrench, unscrew the nuts of the two coupling bolts of the clamp of the main muffler, holding the bolts with a spanner wrench of the same size.
4. Remove the clamp and remove the metal sealing ring.
5. With a mounting blade, remove the pillows from the front muffler bracket (see «Suspension of the exhaust system - replacing pillows»).
6. Similarly, remove the pillow from the rear bracket.
7. We remove the muffler from the opening between the bottom of the body and the rear axle beam.
Installation
Install the muffler in reverse order. If necessary, we replace damaged or lost elasticity of the muffler suspension pads (see «Suspension of the exhaust system - replacing pillows»).
