You can replace the exhaust on an Audi A3 by lifting the car using a ramp to access the components underneath the chassis. First, free the entire exhaust pipe from the bolts securing it to the appropriate supports.

Then, begin by disconnecting the exhaust manifold from the rear of the engine; proceed by removing the catalytic converters and silencers, thus removing the initial part of the exhaust pipe and the corresponding tailpipe. You can now insert all the new components of the exhaust system and check their operation.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
