they filled it with dye and told you to keep driving it till it leaked again?

wow...Wiley Coyote school of mechanics....seems like that's whats been going around here lately. :|

real mechanics like who I learned from (dad) just don't seem to be around anymore...guess they think if they can't plug into it they can't fix it.
I had another leak in the summer of 2011 but since I don't drive that much, it was only 2600 miles ago. Anyway, they used dye that time and didn't involve me driving it till a leak showed up again. All they did was kick the can down the road and annoyed me.
