Told them I had a coolant leak. They fixed the intake manifold gasket. It still leaks. When I brought this to their attention (at Fury Motors, MN) they said it didn't come up on their diagnostics. I asked if checking the radiator and hoses (whatever goes in and out of the coolant system) would be logical to check. We brought it in.

They said there "might be a pinhole leak" but insisted he had fixed the problem. It is still leaking.

Suggestion? We spend another $200. To see if it will fix the leak "we say is there".
