RE: CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD ON 2000 TOYOTA LAND CRUISER MY VEHICLE DEVELOPED A CRACK IN THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. IT ONLY HAS 43,000 MILES. I BELIEVE THIS MAY BE MORE WIDESPREAD. A FRIEND HAD A 2000 TUNDRA WITH THE SAME 4.7 LITER ENGINE, AND HIS HAS DEVELOPED THE SAME CONDITION. A INTERNET SEARCH HAS REVEALED OTHER REFERENCES TO THIS ISSUE. I WANTED TO LOG MY COMPLAINT SO IT COULD BE COUNTED. COULD NHTSA ASK TOYOTA FOR A INCIDENT REPORT ON THE FAILURE RATE OF THE 4.7 LITER ENGINE? THANK YOU *TR
SLUDGE IN ENGINE
