FAQ for Exhaust Heat Shield Repair

Q: What is the service procedure for exhaust popping/snapping noise when the vehicle is hot, at idle, or immediately after the vehicle is shut off?
A:
You need to raise and support the vehicle, remove the nuts, loosen the exhaust pipe clamp, remove the exhaust hangers, pry the exhaust hangers free, replace the muffler heat shield, and reposition the muffler. Hammer flush the remaining heat shield to the muffler. You also need to install the new heat shield and three straps, cut off the excess strap material and bend the strap, remove the exhaust pipe clamp, install a new exhaust pipe clamp, and reposition the muffler. Then you need to slide the muffler forward, install the nuts and the hangers, press the exhaust pipe hangers, tighten the muffler nuts and the exhaust clamp, and lower the vehicle.

FAQ for Other Repair Info

Q: What should be noticed when installing the right exhaust manifold?
A:
You should tighten the Exhaust Manifold bolts as specified in the service procedure. Improperly installed and/or leaking exhaust manifold gaskets may affect vehicle emissions and/or On-Board Diagnostics II system performance. The cylinder head exhaust manifold bolt-hole threads must be clean and free of debris or thread-locking material. You should not apply a sealant to the first three threads of the bolt.
Q: What should we do if the muffler is NOT being replaced as an assembly?
A:
If the Muffler is not being replaced as an assembly, the band clamp must be replaced. You should mark the position of the band clamp on the intermediate exhaust pipe, remove the band clamp from the exhaust pipe, and install a new band clamp onto the exhaust pipe.
Q: What is the removal procedure for the exhaust hanger mounting bracket (6.0L and 8.1 L Engines)?
A:
You need to remove the exhaust manifold pipe, the catalytic converter, the Exhaust Pipe hanger bracket bolts, the exhaust pipe hanger bracket bolts, and the exhaust manifold pipe bracket.
