one last question bout that manifold

[fawlty04]

hey guys, i was just wanting to confirm that toyota matrix parts should be interchangeable for this repair. decided to let the mechanics do it after getting a look at the underbelly and what i'd be up against yesterday.so, the parts in question are:exhaust manifoldexhaust manifold gasketexhaust pipe sealcorresponding GM numbers (respectively):889746078896963288969134thanks!

same exact thing if you havematrix xr 2wd = vibe basematrix xr awd = vibe awdmatrix xrs = vibe gtGetting the parts from toyota are probably cheaper than getting them from GM.

I'm jsut curious, how much is the gasket costing?

[fawlty04]

for just the exhaust manifold:at gmpartsdirect.com they're selling it for $230 + s/hat various toyota places they're selling it for $165 + s/hgot a response from a salvage yard too, don't know what they're selling it for.

I think the exhaust manifold gaskets were around $20? Let me check what boosted2.0 was selling them for....

toyota parts has it for $15 + s/h.having trouble locating the exhuast pipe seal on the toyota sites though.... is there another name for it? are there any side-by-side parts lists for toyota/gm thingies?

Just call your local Toyo dealer parts dept and ask them!

hey, would it be an exhaust valve seal? valve doesn't really equate to pipe in my head -- but was the closest thing that matched on this one website...
