My warranty was within 1,000 miles of expiring and they covered my valve cover gaskets, intake gasket and crank case gasket ($4300-$100 deductible) kudos to them and thank God for saving me the trouble and heartache of not catching it in time!

No joke there! Intake gaskets are just basically rubber O rings, no coolant ever goes into the intake on those engines, the gaskets are about $20. Valve cover gaskets aren't that bad either, I wonder if they had to pull the engine to do the crank case gasket...

It was mostly labor but either way I'm glad I only paid $100.

All this work was needed on a 05 GXP..............Woooow, what is the mileage.
This sort of helps me with my decision.
