and/or additions of aftermarket devices can reduce the
effectiveness of the system, as well as cause damage to the
exhaust system and/or engine. Any modifications may also
invalidate the vehicle and/or engine warranties. See the vehicle
and engine warranty guides for more information.
The inlet holes in the side of the assembly are functional. These holes
allow outside air to be drawn into the outlet assembly. The holes need to
be kept clear of mud and other foreign material to maintain proper
functionality of the system. One way to keep the holes clear is to spray
the outlet assembly with a hose when washing the vehicle. Failure to
keep the functional holes clear of foreign material may result in the holes
becoming blocked or plugged.Blocked/plugged holes or
modification/removal of the outlet assembly could result in
elevated exhaust temperatures which may result in
vehicle/property damage and/or personal injury.

vehicle may be equipped with noise emission items. Depending on the
vehicle configuration, it may have all or some of the following items:

•Inspect fan for damage to blades; if damaged, replace with the
recommended parts. Inspect for fan-to-shroud interference and any
damage to shroud such as cracks and holes.
•Do not change fan ratio or alter fan spacer dimensions and positions.
•Inspect fan clutch for proper operation; make sure the fan is
disengaged when cooling of the engine is not required.
•Inspect radiator shutters (if equipped) for proper operation; the
shutters should be open during normal operating temperatures.
Engine:Valve covers and block covers are made to damp-out engine
mechanical noise and, if needed, should be replaced with recommended
parts. Check for mechanical isolations.

deposits such as oil, dirt and stones.
