E70 X5 40D Exhaust manifold (new wanted)

[NeilEMPF]

Hi i am looking for help sourcing a new E70 X5 40D exhaust manifold (cast iron) as my current one seems to be cracked and fumes are coming through the air con in the cabin. 

I'm struggling to find a supplier in the uk for the 40.D engine. Can anyone point me in the direction of a uk based supplier please

Welcome to the Forum

I changed a manifold for a friend of one of our sons last year (not a 4.0d) he brought a Cast Iron manifold from Ebay for £80 it came with all gaskets and fitted really well. The original had several cracks in it and looked cheap by comparison. The car he says is quieter (well it would be, no cracks) and actually gives better mpg.

So my only thought is talk to the Cast iron suppliers. As you are suffering the cracking I bet you aren't alone maybe they will have a solution
