Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Large intake leak, antifreeze leaking into the oil milked oil. when i checked the oil i found this so started looking for other problems. i put a pressure test on the radiator and found the leak immediately! the antifreeze came out from under the front edge of the #1 cylinder!i am very up set to hear that this is very common and would like to see g.m. recall their trucks for this problem! i repaired the problem myself. if i had to pay some one to fix this problem it would have cost in the range of $700-$900. *ak
