  1. As you stated the 3.4L intake manifold problem was well known by GM and they refused to address that gasket issue for many years. This cost GM many long term ownership loyal customers. I myself was a victim of that, and as a GM employee trying so hard to buy and tout GM products as the best, its hard to do that in this case. You were lucky to get 120k out of the engine. Those gaskets were only good for anywhere from abt. 60k-80k typically and as you said $2k to fix, but really closer to $4k through most shops or GM dealer. Unaceptable! Also the dealer would replace those gaskets with OEM and guess what happened? Why would GM do this to loyal customers? They didn't want any loyal customers? Appearently so.... I'm glad you bought the Chevy, hope you have a better engine than the Venture had, time will tell. But GM should listen. A crossover doesn't have the cargo capacity nor combination of cargo and passengers as the mini vans they replaced. If I were in the market to replace the Buick Rendevous I have which replaced the Pont. Montana, I would buy a Chrysler mini van since GM doesn't make one. GM needs to wake up and stop making bad decisons, like totally eliminating the mini van just because we couldn't make a better one than Chrysler. (didn't try hard enough)We don't need 3 different brands of the same thing(Lamda) and no mini van. GM should offer an extended mini van with AWD or FWD and 8 pass. seating and of course a better engine std. than the infamous 3.4L.
