#705246April 3, 1999
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:MANIFOLD/HEADER/MUFFLER/TAIL PIPE
I HAVE RECENTLY HAD TO REPLACE MY RIGHT EXHAUST MANIFOLD DUE TO A VERY NOISY "LEAK" INCLUDING EXHAUST LEAKING INTO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT (ROTTEN EGG SMELL) WITH THE VENTILATION SYSTEM RUNNING!!! NOT A GOOD SITUATION TO HAVE. THE MECHANIC AT TOWN NORTH NISSAN (AUSTIN, TX) SAID THAT EITHER THE MANIFOLD BOLTS OR THE GASKET FAILURE CAUSED THE MANIFOLD TO DISTORT, CAUSING THE LEAK. AFTER 2 WEEKS, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE LEFT MANIFOLD IS NOW LEAKING AT THE GASKET TOO. THE LABOR AND 2 NEW MANIFOLDS WILL COST A TOTAL OF $1000 TO FIX. I HAVE TALKED TO A LOT OF NISSAN PATHFINDER OWNERS THAT HAVE NOTICED THE SAMETHING. SEE WEB SITE HTTP://SATURN.GUESTWORLD.TRIPOD.LYCOS.COM/WGB/WGBVIEW.DBM?OWNER=PATHQA FOR MORE INFORMATION. *AK
