[jguckiean] When I arm myself with info. I dont really tell my dealer right off the bat what I know, they will say "you cant believe what you hear yadayada... I also have 54,000miles on my van. I just said "My dh noticed the low coolant light was on and I heard from others who have this van there has been problems with manifold gasket leaking and we have not seen any antifreeze dripping out anywhere, with this vehicle and I want to make sure thats not it especially internally so I dont ruin my engine. " I didnt let them know about the $100. I tell my dealer all the different problems. My dealer called me and sure enough yes, gasket needs replaced. However they said for sure it was leaking externally a bit but also said they could not rule out an internal leak. (what a surprise) They said it doesnt matter either way it needs replaced. They did not flush it just emptied most and refilled with dexcool which they said only use that. Then they told me the price $790.00!!!! Same as the other posts were talking about. I called the main Pontiac told them there is no way I can pay for that and I heard there has been many problems with this. Pontiac and Dealer called each other and called me with the news of "OK we will replace the manifold intake for a $100.00 deductable and they replaced my blower resister! (my blower motor for heater/ac only worked on high) I ended up after repair bringing it back because engine light was on they said code p0440 evap. I left gas cap off. Well under the paper I saw it written that purgeline was loose on purge valve!! That is what was written word for word that I was not suppose to see. Obviously the repairman fault I didnt have to pay but they just dont admit when they do things wrong they like to blame customers for trouble. Sometimes you have to keep fighting nicely because they will do what they can get away with. The squeaky wheel gets the oil. good luck. Make sure to read the other posts about this.
