Make sure it is the right part
This is the whole front Y-pipe with the flex joint, not just a flex section. It fits the 3.0L V6 only, front-wheel and all-wheel drive. Confirm Displacement (L): 3.0 in the free NHTSA VIN decoder, and check the leak is really at the flex joint (see the guide below) before you buy.
