Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Engine coolant light came on. i replaced 1/2 gallon of coolant. at my next oil change, i noticed an orange gel on my oil cap. i figured it was an internal coolant leak; therefore, it was probably a head gasket leak. i took my car to local chevrolet dealership for service. the service technician determined it was an intake manifold gasket leak. if the gasket was not replaced promptly, the engine oil would fail to lubricate the engine properly. the result could be catastrophic damage to the engine. 8jb |
