I'll be installing my G37 Coupe Sport exhaust this weekend. The installation is pretty straightforward, but I was looking at the instructions and noticed it says to lubricate the rubber exhaust mounts if necessary.

Does anyone know what product to use to lubricate them?

 

You only need to lubricate them to make them easier to slide onto the hangers. Anything slick that's not petroleum based. Silicone lube or a synthetic grease will work fine.

 

Thank you!

 

Soap works just fine, too.

 

I used dish soap

 

I just did this yesterday. FYI, the factory hangers have a little arrow shape to them, so it's a pain in the *** to get it back out. It took some pulling on the hangers while pushing/prying of the rubber to pop it out. It'd be easier with 2 people for that part. Otherwise, it's super easy and about 10 bolts (14mm mostly)

 

+1 for dish soap. I used dish soap and it worked like a charm. First time screwing around with an exhaust. Had to get rid of the god awful muffler delete..

 

I used wd40 lol

 

I think I used some sort of leather conditioner...just about anything (even water) will make it easier than going in dry
