In an attempt to find the actual failure rate and timing of the coolant pipes - I thought a poll might be useful. Please check off only the applicable answer.. perhaps this can be made a sticky.

SINCE each question requires at least one item to be checked off - I've included as the last option an option that refers you to the next or prior section - these will be ignored when I tabulate the results.

So far - assuming the people who replaced the pipes as a precaution (non-failed) didn't have leaks.. it looks like 11 non-leaking systems vs 2 leaking. Hopefully more people will post their experiences - but to date - failure rate appears to be about 20% (of a very small non-scientifically valid sample.. ANY survey like this tends to get the negative responses over-represented since those people are usually pissed off..) - not good - but not as awful as one might think reading the threads on pipe failures.
