problem #1

Mar 102008

Monte Carlo Coupe 3.1L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 130,000 miles

the mechanic told me that Chevy uses a plastic part for the interior manifold gaskets. factory made. that is BS!! if you have a 1996-1999 Chevy Malibu, Monte Carlo or Lumina, you are screwed. its going to happen to you. an interior manifold gasket leak will happen. i wont ever buy a Chevy car again!
