I feel like Screaming , I have had the car for only a week if that , and already I have put $ 1,500.00 into repairs and now the manifild is cracked.. Does anyone kno where i can get one cheap? The dealer wants over $ 1,000 for a new one.

Junkyard. There are other cars that share your engine, so that will help your situation.

Is it a 3.2 or 2.5 engine?

If its a 2.5, look for Acura Vigors

And if its a 3.2, look for a Legend engine.

It is a 96 2.5 TL , what year acura vigors do I need to get one from?

toddpa332

I searched on line and cant even seem to find a new one from a on-line store. they list everything else for the exhaust system.

There was a recall on this item w/ a free replacement. I used this on my 97 2.5TL last year about this time. If no joy, try for a used w/ following link for local yards w/ part.

How many miles are on your car?

If its under 150,000 you qualify for a free replacement

toddpa332

it has 158,000

And I assume you would have to take the vehicle to a acura dealer to make sure the milage is correct?

I was over k and bought used ex-manifold from an online junkyard.
Parts and labor was $450.00. It's been two years now and everything still good.

Where are you located? I could get that welded for you.

Call Honda about your manifold. I had acura replace mine for free because it had an emission warranty on it, the same might go for you.

i would just get a mechanic to weld the manifold (well thats what i had dnoe) and at least that gets the diesel noise away...depending on you if u rather be safe and and spend more cash on the manifold..welding is much cheaper..

toddpa332

New (used) manifold installed . What a difference it has made . Thanks Everyone

How much did everything costs?

I paid 450.00 (included shipping) for the manifild , 20.00 for a new gasket and 100.00 in labor.
