Clamp installation procedures when replacing the main muffler and center muffler
- Tighten the main muffler and the center muffler with specified torque.
Tightening torque:
40.0 - 60.0 N.m (4.1 - 6.1 kgf.m, 29.5 - 44.3 lb-ft)
NOTE:- If the tail pipe position is different from the initial position, the bumper may be damaged by the pipe noise and heat which arise from the interference between the tail pipe and the rear bumper.
- Do not tighten the clamp by turning it once. Tighten the clamp nuts with the specified torque by alternately turning them a couple of times.
Tightening torque:
18.0 - 24.0 N.m (1.8 - 2.5 kgf.m, 13.3 - 17.7 lb-ft)
