• Q: How to install the exhaust manifold and associated components on 2010 Scion xD?

  A: Start exhaust manifold installation by installing the No. 2 exhaust manifold heat insulator using 3 bolts at 12 Nm tightness (122 kgf-cm, 9 ft-lbf). The next step involves placing an exhaust manifold gasket together with the exhaust manifold followed by torquing 5 nuts to 21 Nm (214 kgf-cm, 16 ft-lbf). Revolve the manifold support bracket using three bolts connected in sequence and torquing them to 43 Nm (438 kgf-cm, 32 ft-lbf). Install the No. 1 exhaust manifold heat insulator using four bolts which need tightening to 12 Nm (122 kgf-cm, 9 ft-lbf). Install the drive shaft assembly RH together with the front axle assembly RH and finally add the No. 1 front suspension arm sub-assembly RH followed by the front stabilizer link assembly RH and the tie rod end sub-assembly RH and front speed sensor RH and front axle shaft RH nut before securing the front wheel. The front exhaust pipe assembly and air fuel ratio sensor must be installed following the established procedures. The mechanic should fill automatic transaxle fluid while measuring the level before filling manual transaxle oil followed by leak inspections of both automatic and manual transaxles. The technician must inspect exhaust gas leaks followed by front wheel alignment examination and adjustment processes. The installation and tightening of engine under cover RH must be completed according to specifications with a torques value of 5.0 Nm (51 kgf-cm, 44 in-lbf).
