Condition
Some customers may comment on coolant leaking from
the engine.
Cause
The gasket located between the coolant crossover pipe
and the front of the right (rear side) cylinder head may
be leaking.
Correction
Replace the coolant crossover pipe gaskets with
updated service replacement gaskets. There are three
coolant crossover designs. The second design
crossover started during the 2008 model year. The
second design crossover has an access hole for a
cylinder head plug on the rear bank (bank 1). This
crossover uses the three mounting hole gasket. The
two examples below use the three hole gasket.
