#11587, "3 LEAKS in my engine, confirmed by SATAN"


          

My car is at Satan's Dungeon right now being worked on. The following things are bad...

head gasket leak -$699.82 (including valve cover gasket)
Valve cover gasket leak
Transmission fluid leaking into the throwout bearing sleeve. -$531.27

TOTAL $1317.27

that sucks!

anyone else had the problem with tranny fluid leaking into the TOB sleeve?

Satan is actually taking pictures for me of each step. LOL!

Damm your paying $699.82 for them to replace your head gasket and valve cover gasket... Ouch..
The head gasket only costs $55, and the valve cover is $20 + 4 spark plug gaskets $28, So you at 103 for parts and almost 6 for labor, cheaper to do it yourself

The spark plug groumets will be about 2" in diameter. I bought mine form the dealer thats why there $28. It funny cause they charge you 6.xx for ea. one, but all 4 of them come in one package?? Also when i replaced my valve cover gasket ans spark plug gaskets, i did'nt get any little gromets that be used for the bolts.
