My car has has had two broken studs for years Posted by Bill Homer [Email] (#3427) [Profile/Gallery] (more from Bill Homer) on Sat, 16 Jul 2011 14:54:51 In Reply to: Exhaust manifold studs broken; how many do you need?, Diamond Dave, Sat, 16 Jul 2011 13:45:37 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
My knowledgeable SAAB indy told me that most turbo SAABs past a certain age have at least one stud gone. He also said that with 195,000 miles on the car to forget about it, that it will be a race whether more studs break, the exhaust gasket quits, or the headgasket fails - it's much easier to replace the studs with the head off of the engine.
