Installation [12/2019 - 10/2022]: Procedure
- INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (for Bank 2)
Refer to INSTALLATION [12/2019 - 10/2022]
- INSTALL HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (for Bank 1)
Refer to INSTALLATION [12/2019 - 10/2022]
- INSTALL FRONT EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
- Install 2 new gaskets to the front exhaust pipe assembly.
- Temporarily install the front exhaust pipe assembly with 4 new nuts.
- Tighten the 4 nuts.
Torque: 43 N.m (438 kgf/cm, 32 ft.lbf)
- INSTALL CENTER EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY (TWC: Rear Catalyst)
- Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the 2 compression springs.
Standard Length 40 mm (1.57 in.) Minimum Free Length 38.5 mm (1.52 in.) If the free length is less than minimum, replace the compression spring.
- Temporarily install a new gasket to the front exhaust pipe assembly.
- Using a plastic hammer and wooden block, tap in the gasket until its surface is flush with the front exhaust pipe assembly.
*1 Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly *2 Gasket *a Wooden Block NOTE:- Be careful with the installation direction of the gasket.
- Do not reuse the gasket.
- Do not damage the gasket.
- Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipes when connecting them.
- Connect the center exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) to the 2 exhaust pipe supports.
- Install the center exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) to the front exhaust pipe assembly with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.
Torque: 43 N.m (438 kgf/cm, 32 ft.lbf)
HINT:
After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the center exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) and front exhaust pipe assembly is consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
*1 Center Exhaust Pipe Assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) *2 Front Exhaust Pipe Assembly *3 Gasket *a Space between Flanges: 6.5 mm (0.256 in.) - Connect the heated oxygen sensor (for Bank 2) connector.
*a Tube *b Wire Harness Clamp - Engage the 2 wire harness clamps so that the tube is positioned as shown in the illustration.
- Connect the heated oxygen sensor (for Bank 1) connector.

- Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the 2 compression springs.
- INSTALL TAIL EXHAUST PIPE ASSEMBLY
- Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the 2 compression springs.
Standard Length 40 mm (1.57 in.) Minimum Free Length 38.5 mm (1.52 in.) If the free length is less than minimum, replace the compression spring.

- Do not reuse the gasket.
- Do not damage the gasket.
- Do not push in the gasket by using the exhaust pipes when connecting them.
- Connect the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the 4 exhaust pipe supports.
- Install the tail exhaust pipe assembly to the center exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) with the 2 bolts and 2 compression springs.
Torque: 43 N.m (438 kgf/cm, 32 ft.lbf)
HINT:
After installation, check that the space between the flanges of the tail exhaust pipe assembly and center exhaust pipe assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) is consistent front-to-rear and left-to-right.
*1 Tail Exhaust Pipe Assembly *2 Center Exhaust Pipe Assembly (TWC: Rear Catalyst) *3 Gasket *a Space between Flanges: 6.5 mm (0.256 in.)
- Using a vernier caliper, measure the free length of the 2 compression springs.
- INSPECT FOR EXHAUST GAS LEAK
If gas is leaking, tighten the areas necessary to stop the leak. Replace damaged parts as necessary.
- Perform Inspection After Repair after repairing an exhaust gas leak.
Refer to INITIALIZATION [12/2019 - 10/2022]
- Perform Inspection After Repair after repairing an exhaust gas leak.
