Troubleshooting

Engine misfire or rough idle after installation

This can indicate an exhaust leak. Re-check torque specifications and ensure all bolts are tightened evenly. Verify that the gasket was seated correctly and is not damaged.

Check Engine Light (CEL) related to exhaust or boost pressure

An exhaust leak or improper seal can trigger CEL codes. Inspect for any visible signs of leakage. Ensure all connections are secure and that the gasket is the correct part for the application.

Visible exhaust smoke or fumes from the engine bay

This suggests a breach in the seal. Turn off the engine and allow it to cool. Visually inspect the gasket area for any signs of escaping gas or soot. If found, the seal needs to be redone with a new gasket if damaged.
