??? Piston rings are seeping ??? Replace all seals ???

How did they determine that? Did they tell you?
Actually they said piston sleeve. I'll get it back next week and I'll share the notes of what they actually replaced. So far the vehicle is up with the trans and engine on stands. Getting pretty serious. Was told if gone too much further on repairs they would have sent new motor. Kind of wish the had.
