    So Iv'e got a nasty exhaust leak and need to replace the manifold gasket, I attempted to remove the manifold with no such luck and made it worse. How is it that the manifold has to be removed? You have to pull it away from the engine and up the exhaust turbine and I'm pretty lost. Any tips?

    Hi, I have a problem with blue / black smoke sometimes, which disappears if the engine is switched off and on again. Have cleaned the EGR valve. I'm thinking it is swirl flaps sticking. Thinking of either getting a used intake manifold, or getting the swirl flaps removed. Any comments would be...

    Hi, I've a really major issue that I cant seem to get my head around. I've got a 2001 Saab 9-3 2.0T.

    So bought my dads 9-3 off him... However it has one nagging fault, when started from cold there is a leak from the exhaust manifold / turbo meeting point on the front of the block. Only happens from cold and its a grey /light bluish smoke (albeit not burning oil at all, so reckon its just...
