I took my vehicle in with a coolant leak, and was told that I needed to replace the water pump. One week later its leaking just as bad as before and they are saying its the intake manifold gaskets. Does this seem plausible or am I getting taken for a ride?

Hi Was truck not leaking when you picked it up after water pump repair? if yes then as bad luck would have it the intake started leaking. So it is plausible factoring in 143K miles and 11 yrs. service.
Hope this helps
Thanks fordonate
