I have an '02 Grand Am with the 3.4 liter 6cyl engine.
I remember reading about this engine having a gasket problem, it was either a head gasket or a manifold gasket.
I think I heard it was a design flaw? Can someone fill me in on the details? Can this be corrected, or is this something that keeps coming back?
I think I want to have it looked at before it becomes a bigger issue.
Any info you can pass on, links, or whatever, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Lower intake manifold gaskets. Coolant loss which is sometimes noticed leaking outside the engine. It can also leak into the crankcase and if left un-noticed, you can burn up the lower end bearings. They have improved gaskets and manifold bolts that won't loosen as easily as the original.
I forgot to respond. Thank you very much. I'm getting it fixed right now, the kit was only $70.
