M54 3.0i Exhaust Gasket Replacement at Catalytic Converter

[andrewwynn]

I believe I use my 3/8 stubby impact to get the seam bolts off of the E 92 I worked on. come to think of it though I think two of the four bolts twisted off I did replace all the bolts. if you use hardware store bolts make sure you get hardend ones.

The advantage of the hardware store bolts was I got slightly longer ones and that was much easier to get them online because the exhaust pipes love to be bent where you don’t want them. I had to redo that connection because it was in the way of changing the transfer case
