Removal and Installation

NOTICE: Do not use silicone based sprays or lubricants on any components installed onto or around the diesel exhaust system or intake air distribution and filtering system. Silicone reacts with the Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) sensor and may cause permanent damage to the NOx sensor.

NOTICE: Make sure the ignition switch is in the OFF position prior to working on the electronic engine controls or damage to the vehicle may occur.
