Hi guys,
Around September last year there was this ticking sound coming from the back of the engine bay. I took it to my mechanic and he said that my exhaust manifold was leaking. He told me that he would have to remove the turbo and re weld the exhaust manifold. He did so and after the sound was gone and the pick up improved a lot as well.
Towards the end of last year the ticking sound started to come back, first it wasn't that loud, but now it has become louder. I'm guessing its the exhaust manifold again. My question is..
Is there any permanent fix to this problem?
If I have a custom one made or got an aftermarket one would it help?
Or is there a better way to weld it?
Also, do you guys know anyone who would be good at fixing this sort of problem?
Thanks guys...
