    R manifold troubles

    Hi all I've just had a s60r manifold fitted to my p2 v70 t5 but we can not get rid of a slight blow on it they have put all new gaskets on and it's as tight as it goes it's not cracked but is still blowing slightly does anybody know if the gaskets for the R manifold are different to a standard t5 cheers

    Yep, it's not uncommon for them to warp.

    you've not got one of the gaskets upside down ??, which is also quite common as a few on here have done it before not mentioning any names....lol

    Not sure on that one as mechanic did it I'm going to try and get the gasket that's one piece so hopefully shouldn't have that problem although it wouldn't surprise me if it was that as it's only a slight blow right out of the corner

    You can if you like, my new gearbox is currently sat on the bench awaiting fitting and Alex has taken the liberty of putting a huge sign on it say " fill with oil " the cheek sod, as if I'd forget......

    Ask for a gasket for a later model S40/V30, or go to your Ford dealer
