I've taken my car to two different Auto Shops and have had two different results. The first shop said that I have a suspect leak in the head gasket or the intake manifold. They say that they need to take it apart and that it will take 15 hours of labor and cot $1,000.
The other shop did a pressure check, could not find a leak and says that it is normal for a small amount of anti freeze to leak. Especially in ford tauruses with as much mileage as I have.
My quetion is what is your opinion on the subject?
