In today's tutorial video, we will go through the main steps to remove the exhaust, along with the exhaust catalytic converter, from an Opel Astra G MK4. First, lift the vehicle and start by removing the nuts from the studs on the exhaust manifold, so you can detach the exhaust; then remove the exhaust support to take it out completely.

At this point, proceed, if necessary, with replacing the catalytic converter and the lambda sensor; all that remains is to reassemble everything by applying the reverse procedure of disassembly!
