Exhaust leak

[chillinmcmillan]

Pretty sure I have one, my mechanic thinks it is coming from the manifold, my dad says maybe the resonator is cracked. Do you think mazda is gonna bitch about my Injen and say that it caused the leak? Taking it in tomorrow for them to look at it, hope all goes well and it's fixed under warranty. If they don't do it, I guess I'll just drive around to different dealerships till I find one that will fix it.(upyours) Mazda

anyone?

an intake has no way of causing that so you dont have anything to worry about man

most likely the manifold bolts are loose

this is more of a comment then a question,but any way I don't think you'll have a problem,and if you think you may,then why not but the factory intake bake in.

Went in today and they are fixing it under warranty. They said it was one of the gaskets in the manifold. Tried to tell me that the intake was what caused it, I was like whatever. They are still fixing it under warranty though!

yep seems to be a very common problem...it if happens again(usuallly does) make sure they use threadlocker next time....mine had been in twice thus far....

Holy crap thats alot..I tried to get the recall done..the "clunk" and the head master tech. who is obviously a ass clown said my injen was doing it. Right, and it stops clunking when my car has been driven for 5-10 mins. and is from the REAR of the car..? They are idiots over at the mazda dealerships.

all good they are covering it under warranty, although they say I have to take my injen off before I bring it in, so yaaaaa tomorrow I get to spend the day taking my intake off
