Crack in exhaust manifold. Options? Posted by Dano in Texas [Email] (#1125) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Dano in Texas) on Tue, 12 Aug 2014 08:10:41 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
2004 Aero wagon, 109,000 miles.
Loud exhaust noise in engine bay at startup then quiets as engine warms up. Pulled out the heat shield to take a look and feel around. On cold startup, felt air coming from exhaust manifold.
On closer inspection, looks like a crack where the #1 cylinder exhaust meets the #4 cylinder exhaust (see middle of pic). After warm up the metal expands to mostly seal the crack and noise goes away.
What are my options? Can this be welded? Get a junkyard exhaust manifold?
