I’m planning to tackle some work on the exhaust system of my 2010 Toyota Corolla, and I’m quickly realizing that having a good diagram would make this project a whole lot easier. The exhaust setup seems pretty straightforward at first glance, but I know there’s more to it once you start digging into the pipes, catalytic converter, and muffler connections. I don’t want to start taking things apart only to find out I’m missing something important or, worse, end up reassembling it incorrectly.

I’ve never worked on the exhaust system before, so I’m hoping to get some guidance from anyone who’s done this kind of job on a Corolla. Specifically, I’m looking for a detailed diagram that shows all the components and their connections, so I can plan out what needs to be removed, replaced, or reattached. I’ve heard that some of these parts can be a pain to deal with, especially if they’re rusted or corroded, so any tips on that front would be great too.
