2000 olds Silhouette 1 owner with 43000 miles, intake manifold leaking coolant, had to have it replaced before coolant in oil damaged engine beyond repair, also noisy lifters. Discovered this is very common problem with GM ignoring a defect in the gasket/design of engine. Consumer pays price.

Intake manifold gasket leaking at 38,000 miles. Replace by GM under warranty. Intake manifold leaking again at 70,000 miles. Needs to be replaced again. I contacted GM customer assistance and they basically said they wouldn't help me because they already paid for it once. This problem is in addition to brake cylinder problems and other coolant system problems. I also have considerable leaks in this vehicle.
