td5 exhaust manifold

[SiddersC]

Anyone have any feedback on the upgraded exhaust manifold for the Td5, not cheap but a permanent fix apparently
Mine needs doing again and am considering a new one

[roverv8]

i ground out the webbing & got it shaved flush again, never had a problem since.
it used to creak & make a few noises as it cooled (exhaust manifold) before but no more funny noises either since i done this

Already cut and skimmed the manifold, its probably been on 2 years and its leaking again

[roverv8]

do you think its's warped again or just the gasket?
the gasket is 2 pieces pressed together, im not so sure thats a good thing.
plenty will disagree tho

Where can you get them skimmed? Was thinking an engineering joint? Or engine builder?
Mine has a nice squeal at the moment

Did you elongate the manifold stud holes allowing the manifold to grow as such.
Did mine without dewebbing 3 years ago no more problems.

I took mine to an automotive head reconditioner. Cost $50. They did the turbo flange face as well. I've had it on about 2 months so can't comment on longevity yet.

Would you mind mentioning the shop? I'll file it away for next time I need to get it done - it was extremely difficult finding a place that would do it for me last time.

Cheers!

Hi Michael.

It was done by Enoggera Cly heads. I can't recall the number. But Google should tell you. The workshop is old school. Like stepping back to the fifties. But there work is spot on. Highly recommended.

Good evening all.


Got a 2002 D2 TD5 and had the whistling noise between 2000-3000rpm now for few mths and pulled the heat shield off for a look today. Missing 1 front stud and back 2 nuts so guess that's the problem.

Any feedback on having this repaired South of Perth(without getting reared) or even a source for machined/exchanged/new manifold and I will try myself. I hope there could be new products/methods out there to eliminate future reoccurrence which members might know about. I think I have read most of the up to date posts on dewebbing, machining, ceramic coating etc.


Thanks in advance for any comments. Cheers.

Chris, ORGER ENGINES in Scorsby Road Bayswater should be able to do it.
Everyone knows of them, as when I tell people they say, "oh the joint opposite the Adult shop ":o
Cheers,

Hey mate I'm in Perth but can't help on where to get the labor done as I did my manifold myself and it's a fairly easy job to do as mine was the same as your squeaking at higher rpm...

mines been on for nearly a year now and drive it daily aswell as use it for towing quite abit what I ended up doing was souced a second hand warped manifold got it faced by a machine shop dewebbed and enlarged the 8 out side stud holes and then had it ceramic coated inside and out so far so good. For me the ceramic coating was the most expensive part of the job but think its well worth it.
