END PIPES, ALIGNING
Procedure
Align rear muffler so there is an even distance between bumper openings and tailpipes.
Scheme 36
- Left dimension -a- = right dimension -a-.
- Dimension -b- = approximately 19 mm
- Dimension -c- = approximately 22.5 mm.
To align tailpipes, loosen rear muffler mounts.
- Tightening specifications, refer to «MUFFLER OVERVIEW»(/audi/tt/8j-2010-2014/remont/exhaust/#20l-exhaust-system-emission-controls-engine-codes-cdma-coupe) .

EXHAUST SYSTEM, CHECKING FOR LEAKS
Procedure
Start the engine and let it run in idle.
Seal the exhaust pipes with cloths or plugs during the leak test.
Check the connections between the cylinder head and exhaust manifold with the turbocharger, exhaust manifold with turbocharger and front exhaust pipe, etc. by listening for leaks.
Repair detected leaks.
EXHAUST FLAP VACUUM DIAPHRAGM, CHECKING
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Hand Vacuum Pump VAS 6213
Procedure
Remove the hose from the exhaust flap vacuum diaphragm on the rear muffler.
Connect the VAS 6213 at the vacuum diaphragm.
Scheme 37
Operate hand vacuum pump.
Scheme 38
- Linkage must move upward.
Vent hand vacuum pump.
- Linkage must move downward.
If the linkage does not move, make sure it is not stuck and check the vacuum diaphragm for leaks.
