1999 Pontiac Trans Sport EXT. 3.4 from North America
Summary:
I love my Mini Van!
Faults:
I have had my Pontiac Mini Van for 2 years now and except for normal wear and tear items such as brakes and windsheild wipers, I have not had any major problems.
But last week I had my first major problem which was my Intake Manifold Gasket on the engine wore out at 116,000 kms and caused my heater and de-frost to stop working. This is about a $400.00 job plus taxes.
My mechanic says that this is quite a common problem with the 3400 engine.
I am still in shock as my van has been so reliable except for this set back.
General Comments:
My van drives more like a car then a minivan.
The interior in the van could be a little better made as my driver's seat has already worn out.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I do believe that you have to give us the name of this transmission shop because we would never go there!!they've made a so called hold-up without a gun and with your approval!!..i have mine rebuilt (1997 transport) at 213000 km for 2100 CDN dollars (around 1500-1600 US dollars) near Montreal.
