Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My oldsmobile 88 was loosing anti-freeze. there was a recall on the fuel pressure regulator, so i took it in for recall repair and had the dealer check the coolant system. they said my intake manifold needed to be replaced at a cost of $1200. this is the second time i have had to have this done to the car. the intake manifold was replaced at 60000 miles.apparently the plastic manifold is not able to handle the heat. my car has never overheated and this should not be happening. i have 133,000 miles on the vehicle and should not have had to replace this manifold twice.*ak
