Yes. I took it to a shop and had them do a head gasket. When they had the head off, they discovered that it was very slightly warped, which may have also caused the leak. I was surprised to hear this, considering we have owned it since new and it has never overheated, or been exposed to anything that would cause warping. I guess it must have been a manufacturing defect. My wallet is $3300 lighter, but the car has been running great for over 6 mos, with no more oil in the coolant. Still cheaper than buying a new one.
