Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The car has been running low on radiator fluid, but we could not find any visible leakages. we have been replinishing the fluid. we did not think anything major. on a friday, we started to hear a knock in the engine. we were told to have the oil changed/looked at. afterwards, the noise continued even louder. we had the car immediately towed. the problem involved the lifters and the intake gasket. (both problems are related.) i researched and many others had the similar problems with the intake gasket. repair for all will be $1,000.*ak
