'04 CS coolant leak
Guys ! I'm new to this board.
Last Saturday while I was driving around boston, the coolant level indicator showed up which led me to a local dealer in boston. I started by topping off 2 quarts of coolant. After another half an hour drive, i realized that the gauge went over 180F so I went back to the dealer. Now they are ordering parts for me including pimps and clamps o-rings etc. I did some research and I found some guys got a $1,000 voucher which I'm not quite sure whether I understand it correctly. I don't know if any of you guys have come across to this story.
Also, I wonder if you would suggest me to have the job done at the dealer which asking around $2,500 or if any of you could recommend me other garage out there in Boston, I'll really appreciate.
Thank you

You should read the previous posts. There are hundreds of posts regarding this infamous coolant leak issue. It's the plastic coolant line pipes that died on your engine. The dealer should replace them with the metal ones. It's gonna cost you $$$, there is no way out, sorry man...

Yup. Join the Class-Action Suit as well.
Oh, those pipes are available (non-Stealer) for $ 500 shipped and just an afternoon to DIY. If not willing to attempt yourself, find an INDY.
