    Hi,

    I just went through my papers and found a recall from Honda that mentionned
    my Exhaust manifold could be cracked and would be garanteed under their
    extended warranty. How would I know if the manifold is cracked? Is there a
    loud noise? Does the consumption go up? I've noticed that my consumption has
    actually gone up but yesterday I had my timebelt changed and they didn't
    find anything? is it possible to overlook this?

    thanks,

    Jason

    Your car don't qualify for the recall, it only covers 96-97. If your
    manifold is cracked, you'll know it because the noise. It is very loud when
    the car is cold but after a few minutes the noise goes away when the car
    warms up and the metal expands causing the crack to seal.

    the owner, me!
