CAUTION

 If gasket is damaged, replace it, and remove foreign matter on joints and threads.
 If there are any cracks or leakage in precatalytic converter assembly, replace as necessary.
 Check for exhaust gas leaks. If gas leaks, tighten defective area to prevent leaking. Replace damaged

parts as necessary.

 Check that there is no exhaust gas leakage in upstream oxygen sensor connection.
 Check that there is no exhaust gas leakage in downstream oxygen sensor connection.

Main Catalytic Converter Assembly

Removal

1. Turn off all the electrical equipment and ignition switch.
2. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
3. Raise the vehicle to a proper height.
4. Remove the main catalytic converter assembly.

a. Remove 2 coupling nuts (arrow), disconnect the

connection between main catalytic converter assembly
and precatalytic converter lower body assembly, and
take off the gasket in the connecting part.



(Tightening torque: 50 ± 5 N·m)

b. Remove 2 coupling nuts (arrow), disconnect the

connection between main catalytic converter assembly
and center pipe assembly, and take off the gasket in
the connecting part.



(Tightening torque: 50 ± 5 N·m)

c. Remove the main catalytic converter assembly.

WARNING

 The temperature of exhaust system is very high when engine is running. Before removal, make sure that

engine has stopped running, otherwise, there is a risk of scald injury.

CAUTION

 Be sure to wear necessary safety equipment to prevent accidents when repairing.
 Try to prevent body paint surface from being scratched during removal and installation.

CAUTION

 If gasket is damaged, replace it, and remove foreign matter on joints and threads.
 If there are any cracks or leakage in main catalytic converter assembly, replace as necessary.
 Keep sufficient distance between main catalytic converter assembly and body during installation.
 Check for exhaust gas leaks. If gas leaks, tighten defective area to prevent leaking. Replace damaged

parts as necessary.
