What a coincidence, Rob . . .

I picked The Doophus up this afternoon after having the Rear Main Seal, the Cover Gasket and the Oil Pan Gasket replaced to fix a minor oil leak.

I had a dealer tell me I needed new gasket. He wanted like 1500, took it home and jacked it up to check for myself. There was no oil, I hate dealers.

Hopefully that isn't the case with The Doophus, Jim.

I've been finding a little puddle under the engine area for quite some time and it appeared to be getting bigger and bigger. At first they weren't able to find any signs of leakage but after the third or fourth visit, voila, a leak was discovered. I sure hope this two day visit "under the knife" plus an almost 1,000 bucks bill will do the trick.

Fingers and Toes are crossed.

Yep, the total bill was just shy of a $1000 and GMPP paid a little over 900 bucks while I paid about 60 bucks for the oil change.

After about three years of "little puddles" on the garage floor . . . I was so happy to learn they had finally found the leaks, I would have paid just about anything.

Good idea, Jeff . . . ignoring "little puddles" doesn't help.
