 Left exhaust manifold cracked, right exhaust manifold broken in 2! cast iron exhaust manifold both diagnosed as cracked - i replaced worse of 2 then better one broke. engine block aluminum - creep/fatigue failure due to thermal expansion rates of manifold versus block should be investigated. i believe warrants a recall - especially in ca with tight smog limits.*ak
