The idea was to show the components, and try to suggest a few things to
help “prevent failure” In order to remove the valves the intake manifold
must be removed, would make for a long video.
Useful tips to avoid to cause a failure and to have to repair here,but no
repair tips at all. I know a guy with this problem on a forester and it’s
1000 euros here. I guess you don’t want to show what makes you live right ?
I just had my secondary seize up at 37,000 miles. Fortunately, I purchased
the warranty extension since my factory warranty had expired and only had
to pay the $100 deductible. Sounds like I need to drive my car a little
harder to get it up to temperature.
I am only here because I have this problem. In Australia the factory repair
cost over $4000. My 06 XT has only done the eqivalent of 35000 miles.
Mostly to and from work. Have been considering having the valve removed and
blanked off, and the code removed.
Your theory of getting the engine up to temperature is interesting, but my
car has this problem and it came on after about 70k miles. i drove daily on
the interstate for 20 miles each way at highway speeds. I live in new
england and my car slept outdoors in the rain and snow all year. Harsh
weather may be as much of a factor as getting exhaust up to temperature.
