Exhaust System Components
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2010 Volkswagen Jetta, 2009 Volkswagen Jetta, 2008 Volkswagen Jetta, 2007 Volkswagen Jetta, and 2006 Volkswagen Jetta. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
When doing any repair work, especially in the engine compartment, pay attention to the following due to clearance issues:
- Route lines of all types (for example, fuel, hydraulic, Evaporative Emission (EVAP), coolant, refrigerant, brake fluid and vacuum) and electrical wiring so that the original path is followed.
- Ensure sufficient clearance to all moving or hot components.
NOTE:
After exhaust system repairs, make sure the exhaust system is not under stress and that it has sufficient clearance from the bodywork. If necessary, loosen the clamp(s) and align the exhaust pipe so that sufficient clearance is maintained to the bodywork and the support rings carry uniform loads.
Gaskets and self-locking nuts must be replaced.
