Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2000 MONTE CARLO AND HAD TO HAVE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS REPLACED DUE TO OIL AND WATER MIXING TOGETHER IN THE ENGINE. WHEN I TALKED TO THE MECHANIC ABOUT MY PROBLEM HE KNEW WITHOUT LOOKING AT IT EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG. CHEVY PUTS A PLASTIC GASKET IN THIS MODEL THAT ENDS UP CRACKING DUE TO HEAT. I HAD TO PAY MY MECHANIC $700 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. *TR
