2 Manifold/header/muffler/tail Pipe problem of the 1999 Lexus RX300

Failure Date: 01/05/2003

I own a 1999 Lexus Rx300 and have had an engine sludge problem which was repaired by the dealer with the valve seal replacement being performed. Also had front exhaust manifold and front down pipe failure(crack) occurring at about 71,000 miles. Unsure as to any relationship between the two.
