Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1998 chevy venture mini-van. have had to replace the radiator (now twice) due to overheating caused by "sludge" in the cooling system. also, mechanic reports a coolant leakage in intake manifold gasket, which apparently is a well-known problem. have only put dexcool in system, so wonder where sludge came from. have not had gasket repaired yet because i think gm should do it for free.
