Engine overheating -- coolant leaking into engine. Intake mainfold gasket showed signs of failing at around 57,000 miles failed completely at 59,000 miles. Did some research on internet and found dozens of reports of similar problems with the 3.1 liter V-6 engine in this and similar GM models. Contacted Oldsmobile customer service and was able to negotiate a 50/50 on the cost of repair.
