Figure 5.101: Exhaust Canister
3. Check the three band clamps (A) securing the tubes in
between the two exhaust canisters.
IMPORTANT:
Do NOT change exhaust canister type, piping sizes, or
exhaust configuration. See your Dealer for proper
replacement parts.
4. Inspect the area around clamps (A) for breakage, cracks,
and rust-through.
IMPORTANT:
If exhaust is leaking, tighten clamps to 12–15 Nm
(9–11 lbf·ft). If leaking at band connection, replace seals.
Contact your Dealer if exhaust leak persists.
5. Check tubing for dents or crushed areas. Dents or crushed
portions of any tubing create exhaust flow restriction and
increase back pressure significantly. Even relatively small
dents will cause decreased fuel economy and increased
turbo wear. If dents are relatively large, increased bearing
and cylinder wear will occur due to increased exhaust
temperature.
