Please GOD let it be the exhaust and not the tranny, I've been so nice to the tranny since the rebuild lol I hope its not pissed at me or somethin lol Thanks for the advice budfreak. P.S. I have the stebro euro resonator, and when I had it installed, I didnt have any new gaskets or anything like that. I also saw the mechanic using silicon. Do you think the silicon gave out and now theres a leak because of that?
Probally. I'd have it all welded up nice and that will take care of it. If it's the header collector gasket that's a fairly easy fix too(provided you can get the bolts out) I've never heard of someone using silicone on the exhaust. Start the car up cold and immediately run your hands along the unwelded joints in your exhaust and see if you find a leak or just get underneath the car while it's running(make sure it's on some sturdy stands and think safety) and listen while someone revs the car. When my torque converter started making noise I could tell immediately where it was coming from inside the car. Does it make the winding down sound when you shut off the car or does the noise immediately go away??? If you don't know then listen very carefully the next time you shut the car down from a drive when it's warmed up and see if it does. Let me know.
