Troubleshooting

Exhaust leak detected after installation.

Double-check that all mounting bolts/clamps are tightened to the correct torque specification. Ensure the mating surfaces on the exhaust pipes were clean and free of debris. Verify the gasket was seated correctly and not pinched.

Gasket does not fit correctly.

Confirm the part number (133.580) and OE reference numbers match your vehicle's requirements. Ensure you have the correct model and year specified in the compatibility list.

Reduced engine performance or check engine light.

While unlikely to be solely the gasket's fault, ensure no other exhaust components were disturbed. Check for secondary leaks or issues with sensors related to the exhaust system.
