Tail pipes, aligning Audi A6 C6 рестайлинг

Tail pipes, aligning

Work procedure

  1. Tightening torque --> «Muffler, assembly overview»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj) .

Scheme 689

Scheme 689
  1. Check distance of end pipes at left and right to bumper cover
  1. Dimension - x - left = dimension - x - right.

Scheme 690

Scheme 690

If necessary, correct dimension "x" as follows

  1. Loosen threaded connections - arrow - of brace between exhaust pipes.
  2. Adjust distance between rear mufflers.
  3. Tighten bolts.

Scheme 691

Scheme 691
  1. Check distances - y - and - z - of end pipes to bumper cover
  1. Dimension - y - Sedan and Avant = 16.0 to 21.0 mm.
  2. Dimension - y - Allroad = 17.5 to 22.0 mm.
  3. Dimension - z - Sedan and Avant = 8.5 to 13.5 mm.
  4. Dimension - z - Avant S-line = 13.5 to 18.5 mm.
  1. Dimension - z - Allroad = -1.5 to 6.5 mm (end pipe is over).
  1. If end pipes cannot be aligned, check whether exhaust system is aligned tension-free --> «Exhaust system, installing free of tension»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj__exhaust-system-installing-free-of-tension) .

2 - Exhaust manifold with catalytic converter

  1. Individual components of mounting: Left «Individual suspension components, left side»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj) , right «Individual components of suspension, right side»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj)
  2. Removing and installing: Left --> «Left exhaust manifold with catalytic converter, removing and installing»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj__left-exhaust-manifold-with-catalytic-converter) , right --> «Right exhaust manifold with catalytic converter, removing and installing»(/audi/a6/c6-2008-2011/remont/cooling-fan/#42l-v8-4v-engine-mechanical-engine-codes-bvj__right-exhaust-manifold-with-catalytic-converter)
