Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

My first "subscription". Thanks!
Thank you!!
Reading the previous DIY guides would have helped a lot! You made it appear to be a lot more difficult than it really is.
To remove the U pipe connecting the secondary cats and the muffler, first remove the heat shields so you have room to work. Then loosen the clamps and move the double clamp towards the cat until it releases the end of the U pipe. Then its really easy to work the U pipe out of the muffler..
Removing the side heat shields makes a huge difference in accessibility/ Three screws each and they are out!

I saw that. I was wondering if it was removed if there would be more wiggle room. Thanks for that tip.
This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
