This may not be the right forum (mods, move it if you need to), but I need to find a good duramax tech in the Louisville, KY area. (Or surrounding area in southern Indiana). I know the problem is I've probably lost a head gasket. Cooling system is being pressurized after only a short time and is dumping coolant out the overflow tube. This morning the low coolant light came on on the way to work. I just don't want to take it to a dealer that's just gonna stand there and scratch their heads. :confused: Truck has 128,000 miles on it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Ryan


This site rocks!!!! :ro) :ro)



Whoops! I intended for this to go in the first gen duramax forum. Honestly don't know how it ended up here.

Inbound PM.

We've done a bunch of head gasket jobs, not exactly with in your search range, but if I can help, let me know.

Thanks dmaxallitech. :) You may just end up hearing from me if I can't find anything closer to home.

I know of a real good shop about an hour away from you, PM me if you want some more info.

Well, traded the truck in for a truck for the wife. 2006 (still new on dealer lot) 1500 CC short bed with a 5.3 gasser 4x4. I will be back to the diesel world around this time next year though. Wife graduates college this summer and I WILL get another diesel when she gets a job. :) Thanks for all the info. This site is the best. I will be checking in from time to time. Thanks all, Ryan

Good luck with the new truck Ryan.:)
