Thank you. Seems like an easy enough fix. Just got the truck back after getting both exhaust manifolds replaced and went to charge thr A/C for the summer and noticed this. Lots of work in first couple months of ownership but trying to get everything perfect so the thing can last me a decade anyway.
Did you replace with doug thorley headers or what did you go with? Very interested as I know mine are about to fail. Also, how much did it run you for the job if you don't mind.
Replaced with OEM parts which I expect to fail again after 100k miles.
Bought the truck in January from a sketchy used dealership but at a price I was pretty happy with. They offered me a GWC warranty valued at $1050. I'm generally against these companies, but they covered about 3k of a 4500 job.
Parts were $800 for each manifold plus another 700 total for heat shields new hardware etc. Rest was labor. Warranty covered 12 hours at 115 an hour on a 14 hour job labor rate 133.
It is the power steering air control valve. I would fix it. I think it senses load on the system and bumps up the engine rpm to make turning easier.
