Intake manifold gasket leaked into the engine 3 times, and needed to be replaced 3 times since I have owned it.
Good car except for the plastic intake manifold gasket and plenum. It is getting too costly to repair. Next time, I am buying a Toyota Corolla or a VW Golf.
The dealer claims the new manifold gasket is metal, but who knows.
Hopefully the gasket fixes it. Corollas have typically been reliable; the same cannot be said of the Golf, however. VW has been working on improving their quality, but there hasn't been enough time to see just how successful their efforts are. Nice thing about many VWs, though, is the availability of diesels.
