1.5 Checking exhaust system for leaks
Procedure
– Start engine, and run at idling speed. – Seal exhaust pipes with cloths or plugs, for example, for the duration of the leakage test. – Check (by listening) points of connection between exhaust manifold and the cylinder head, between turbocharger and front exhaust pipe etc. to make sure there are no leaks. – Repair any leaks found.
1.6 Installation position of clamp
Note
Make sure to use clamps with continuous clip only.

Position of clamp Make sure that installation dimension -a- is obtained.
a - Distance to marking: approx. 8.5 mm 1 - Clamp 2 - Front exhaust pipe 3 - Securing nut Installation position of the clamping sleeve
• Angle -α- (= approx. 20°) must not be exceeded.
