    Front Engine Manifold??

    Get one of the forum lads to look at it and diagnose the actual part thats damaged.

    Could be plenum (upper intake manifold), easy fix
    Could be lower plenum (lower intake manifold), bit more complicated, but still not difficult
    Could be exhaust manifold, on a turbo thats more difficult
    Or it could be anything else that some mechanic just through in a car-like description of. :confused:

    Sounds like you've got a gasket leak on the exhaust manifold or the fan shroud is loose and hitting the fan.

    Fan shroud - easy as.
    Exhaust gasket - NA=easy TT drivers=side doable with engine in, TT pasenger side=engine out.
