Check your warrantee book, the coverage varies state to state. New York is 8 year,80,000 miles. What's with Chrysler and manifold leaks, this has been going on for years with the 2.5, 4.0 ,and now the 3.8. Nice learning curve.

Thanks for the write up Undertow. I'll be doing this this evening. Luckily, my little puff puff puff goes away when manifold warms up.

I heard this last week. Does anyone know if in Cali and had the original 3/36k warranty does the emissions warranty still cover this after the bumper to bumper warranty expired?

Do you have a extended warranty?
