i just got my 7 and i had it up on ramps working on the exhaust....(big leak). i replaced the gasket on the flange thats right after the precat then i put exhaust putty all over it just to make sure it was sealed well. let it set for a while and started it up just to find out my leak is further up. i was frustrated so im gonna work on it some other time because i dont wanna mess things up because i rush or something. i dont know if its my precat or not but i think im gonna try to get a new downpipe, or cut it out and put a pipe in its place....(until i can afford a downpipe) i just spent 4 grand on the car so i dont have a lot of money right now.

i also have to take my sunroof out and clean it and put it back on the tracks or fix it or something because it just clicks for a second then the motor slows to a stop....sounds jammed or something.

and my passenger window doesnt work but i havent gotten time to look at that much because of other things but it seems like it might be a connector to the motor because it doesnt work from either sides switch. i need to look at the wiring diagram and figure it out.

Is there are question in there somewhere?

haha....

is it worth buying a whole new downpipe or should i just try to reseal the hole or holes?

could either be the precat have a cracked flange or the manifold has cracks in it. my bet would be the manifold, which is a fairly common thing on these cars.
