problem #1

Colorado 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 81,000 miles

I can provide pictures, and would really like to, but my camera is at work, and I am iced in at home. The best way I can describe the pistons is to think of the valves on a trumpet. 2 were fractured, and 1 had a "bad spot." 1 of the fractured pistons is missing approximately 1/4 of the bowl shaped top. Another is missing approximately 1/5. There was white smoke and the engine light came on.
