Gotta love the dealerships. I have had my truck twice at the dealer complaining about a leak and they can't find anything. My guess is because it is still under warranty and would cost me zero. The dealer finds a leak for you and wants 2k.So I picked my truck up from the dealership today for the ECM relay recall, and they informed me that my exhaust manifold/s had a leak, but didn't really go into detail. They gave me a quote of $2041 to replace/fix this issue. Does this necessarily mean that one or both manifolds are cracked? Or could it be a gasket leak or something else? Anyone have experience with this, and how does that quote sound? High, low, good? Thanks for the help everyone.
If your under 80,000 miles your emissions are still under waranty, and that covers the exhaust manifold, if they don't want to replace then find another dealershipSo I picked my truck up from the dealership today for the ECM relay recall, and they informed me that my exhaust manifold/s had a leak, but didn't really go into detail.

No go on that one, I'm at 125,xxxIf your under 80,000 miles your emissions are still under waranty, and that covers the exhaust manifold, if they don't want to replace then find another dealership
That quote is out of sight high-dealer sized. A local mechanic can do that work for a fraction of the cost, and may find a simple cause that requires even less expense. We have local, independent mechanics here.So I picked my truck up from the dealership today for the ECM relay recall, and they informed me that my exhaust manifold/s had a leak, but didn't really go into detail.

This sounds like a good route, are all years interchangeable? I have a '04. They hit me with a list of things that need to be done. I thought I was taking good care of her, but according to the dealership, not so much. They ran down the list of things that need fixed, their total came out to just shy of 5k, and they recommended trading it in, but I'm not looking for another payment right now. Also a HUGE part of that is dealer labor, as their labor rate is $120 an hour. A few of the jobs I can do myself, and actually knew about and am getting ready to do but a couple I need to have done(high pressure power steering hose, axle seals, and trans cooler lines all need replaced according to them), because while I'm handy, I'm not quite that handy, and I have very limited room as I live in an apartment complex, with a single car garage. Thanks again for the help everyone.Cheapest route would be a set of low mileage takeoffs from somebody that installed headers, preferably the "improved" version that isn't supposed to crack. Install is still brutal, $300 on the install would be a deal on a 2WD and a killer deal on a 4WD.
Mine were just replaced under (extended) warranty, and that's what they told me it would have cost me if I hadn't had the warranty: over a thousand bucks a piece.That quote is out of sight high-dealer sized.

Would this 80000 mile warranty work for a second owner?If your under 80,000 miles your emissions are still under waranty, and that covers the exhaust manifold, if they don't want to replace then find another dealership
