Attention! Perform the work after the additional muffler has cooled down to a safe temperature.
To carry out the work, you will need an inspection pit or overpass.
Removal
1. Prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Clean the threaded connections of the jet rod with a metal brush and treat with penetrating lubricant.
3. Using a 13 mm socket wrench, unscrew one of the bolts 1 securing the torque rod to the base of the gear shift lever ball joint. Unscrew the other bolt 2 with a 13 mm open-end wrench (access to it is limited by parts of the exhaust system).
4. Using a 13 mm wrench, loosen the torque rod clamp. Having disconnected the end of the rod from its end, we remove the rod.
5. If necessary, use a 19 mm socket wrench to loosen the two nuts securing the torque rod bracket, holding the bolt heads with a wrench of the same size. We remove the bracket together with the tip of the jet rod.
Installation
We install the jet thrust in the reverse order.
