RHS Manifold went at 160,000km. Today it went again at 321,000km. A loud exhaling sound heard under boost and telltale P006A error.
Photo of fresh oil spilling out over the manifold.
I feel I’ve had enough Land Rover life

The piece of paper over the manifold “smoke test” confirms the finding. Manifolds will spilt again.

The 3.0s need a change manifold light that comes on like the old LCs had a Timing Belt light when the change was due. Just goes to show they must hammer the air in with those twin turbos to make all that sweet hp.
Oh no,probably put the mockers on mine by replying to Bulletman's post!!
Surely in this modern age and 3 printers, someone can print up a set in Carbon Fibre, or create a CF overlay? Even printing an oversized set of manifolds to make a mould and die cast a set out of alloy is not outside the realm of possibilities.
I'm glad both of mine were changed at the same time, should be good for the next 100,000km,for the new owner at least....
Got in a bit closer today and the split is enormous. Nearly 2 inches long. You can hear it when you accelerate, this wooshing sound lol. Booked in for two weeks time. Sadly I think my camping trip next weekend will have to be abandoned.

Questions right out of left field.
Is there a product that could be used to wrap the manifolds with to increase their structural strength? Is space a premium and does such a product exist that is compatible with the operating environment?
