Does this sound right..
The guy at the garage said that the "Oil Cooler" at the top of the pan was bent and leaking. So the antifreeze and oil were mixing when it was running together when it wasn't to bad of a leak. But then when it broke the oil just leaked out. And he also said replacing that part with labor was around 500. And possibly if it needed to replace the top assembly it could run up to 1000. DOes that even make sense? Idk how the cold woudl even effect that besides the oil being thick and pushing apart the seal?
