Exhaust Manifold

[IslandBlueStang]

I heard that a lot of 2002 V6 Mustangs have problems with warpage of the exhaust manifold. I can hear a sort of ticking in the engine compartment and I think this is to blame. Can somebody run me through changing exhaust manifold gasket or any other solutions to this problem. I appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks

It's not warpage, it's cracked. You need to buy a new manifold.

Before jumping to any conclusions, seafaom the car to see exactly where the problem is coming from.

Agree on the assumption of a crack...but like noted have it checked.
