At every interval of periodic maintenance service

and when vehicle is raised for other service, check

exhaust system as follows:

Check rubber mountings for damage,

deterioration or out of position.

Keep sufficient clearance between exhaust

system component and underbody.

Check exhaust system for leakage, loose

connection, dent & damage. If bolts or nuts are

loosened, tighten them to the specified torque.

Check nearby body areas for damage, missing

or mis-positioned part, open seam, hole, loose

connection or any other defect which could

(4 to 5 times)

in

standing condition of vehicle on daily basis. In

exhaust system and closed coupled catalytic

converter. High speed running of the vehicle may

be done periodically to avoid chocking of Closed

Coupled Catalytic Converter.
