Exhaust system — removal and installation (Opel Omega A)

2. To remove the complete system, place the vehicle over an inspection pit.

3. Loosen the bolts securing the exhaust outlet pipe to the manifold, lower the distribution pipe and remove the connection.

4. Unscrew the front clamp and disconnect the rubber cushions. The intermediate part's rubber mountings have metal brackets (photo). On some models, the front mount is with a rubber hanger instead of a clamp.
