blowing from exust system

Post by xero01uk »

Hi all

ive started to get some blowing from the front end of the exahust system on my 406 SRi and im thinking its either the manifold gasket or the downlink pipe, has anyone got any tech diagrams i could have a look at please?


if its not these parts what else could it be?


thanks

Get some one to hold a rag over the tail pipe whilst car is running.
then look under the car you will find the leak that way :wink:
