Exhaust gas smell in the passenger compartment
Is your problem SOLVED? Please help me! I have the same problem. The engine compartment completely smells of exhaust gas. It is clear that the exhaust gas is leaking somewhere. They checked it at two service stations, but no leaks were found. Can you help?

Yep, I'm on my third manifold now. Always cracks at the EGR return elbow/manifold flange weld joint - always!. Number three has now failed and i'm going to weld up the last one myself with some reinforcing gusset. The crack is so fine its hard to see, but a smoke test up the exhaust pipe should reveal it.

I have the same problem. Can you tell me what you changed? Where was the pipe cracked?

I have the same problem. Could you tell me where the crack was and which part needed to be replaced?

, Disconnnect the plastic turbo hoses, Remove metal bracket mounted to turbo that bolts to head Unclip dpf sensor connectors (3) remove bolts holding upper heat shield (3) Undo 3 bolts holding DPF to turbo Undo 2 12mm head size bolts under turbo holding it to a bracket ( not visible) Undo 3 Bolts holding turbo to manifold Remove turbo oil feed and return pipes. Remove turbo Undo bolts and nuts holding manifold to head On the left side of the manifold the outlet to the EGR port is smaller. This is where it cracks all around the pipe. You will see black soot on the left side of the manifold You can remove the lower DPF mounting bolt to make things easier, but this is only accessible from underneath.. This bolt secures the DPF to the transfer case. Tailor your vehicle's exhaust sound to match your style with Spelab Auto Parts' exhaust cutout collection.

I agree, I've done something similar myself and re-welding helps.
Will this glue help for a long time? https://technicqll.pl/en/produkt/ht-silicate/ https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/mitsubi...213670acdc.jpg Mitsu Outlander 4N14 GF6W 2.2D-4WD Exhaust Manifold Crack at EGR pipe |
re welding is the cheapest option I dont think any adhesive would last long. Plus the crack is not easy to get to all the way round

Love the car but debating on trading in due to this issue. Thanks |
The Manifold was modified about 2 years ago, it has been redesigned, and no longer cracks.
