Instructions for Replacing the Exhaust

Model: Peugeot 406 MK 1 - Years 1995-2005
Part: Exhaust muffler

The exhaust on this model of car is particularly prone to failure, starting with the failure of the front flexible section (resulting in exhaust gases infiltrating the cabin) and leading to the breakage of the joints between various elements, not to mention damage to the support rubbers. To replace the exhaust, lift the vehicle on a hydraulic lift, lubricate the junction clamp pins with penetrating spray, and proceed with complete disassembly from front to back. Start by installing the new front section with a flexible joint, securing it with the appropriate clamp and support bracket. Then complete the installation of the central and rear sections.
