Since I don't have $900 laying around, it hasn't been fixed yet, but plan to do it this coming week. This morning I noticed a puddle of red fluid towards the right front of the vehicle. My question is...is this MORE bad news? Or related to the bad news I have already received?
My original understanding was that the timing chain was related to the cooling system? Is that wrong?
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
