I was heading out to Montanna, to an Airstream Rally, arrived at an overnight stop in Limestone, PA. Low Coolant light had come on 1/2way, then again just before arriving. GMC dealer in New Bethlehem PA, said bad head gasket. so.
I'm lucky I guess I'm stuck at an Airstream Park, among "friends" BUT.
they got the truck 1 week ago and the parts still are not in? A WEEK? for a head gasket?, there are so many Duramax'es out on the road, I find it somewhat hard to believe. On the surface this appears to be a very very honest small town dealership.
They said they had to order it from GM then GM had to order it from Isuzu.
this 2001 has 72,000 on it, but had an overheat last summer in the mountains of NC.
an injector went in Perry GA in June. they fixed it, but in so doing, had to take out some hoses, did not put back tightly enough and going up a mountain, I blew a hose and all the coolant. I'm assuming this overheat led to the failed head gasket, I pulle off the road as soon as I could but I don't think it was soon enough.
Opinions?
