Services Performed
- Exhaust leak audible on startup – found missing nut on PS header, looks like both gaskets leaking slightly at cylinder head. Recommend new gaskets and replacement nut that is missing. Oil was not showing on the dipstick o/a – recommend more frequent oil level checks. Set tire pressure to 35psi all 4. Tires are in very good condition. Serpentine belt is cracking and will fail soon – recommend replacement asap. Replaced engine oil and filter, used 4.5L of new oil. Replaced engine air filter and cabin air filter. Flushed brake system with new fluid. Customer approved additional time + parts to fix exhaust leak and replace serpentine belt.
- Found all remaining nuts on header studs loose – likely reason gaskets failed prematurely. Replaced missing nut and torqued to spec.
