Did you ever find anything else out about the recall? Did you ever go ahead and replace the UIM?
But my coolant level stayed very constant after I posted this until about two weeks ago, then blamo! reserviour was empty. I checked the UIM and could not find a leak. Then noticed that there was a LOT of liquid down the side. Lower intake is leaking AND the valve cover gaskets are leaking. Yeah!
Ordered everything, asked a bunch of questions here, and tomorrow I am replacing the UIM, LIM gaskets and the valve cover gaskets. Parts came today and everything is there. I decided to go ahead and replace the UIM while I am in there to be on the safe side. Do I need to replace it? Prolly not, but not knowing what they did when the went in, I thought it was best to be on the safe side.
