Thank you all for your suggestions. The dealer has informed me of the leak. I have not noticed a loss of performance, nor an inordinate amount of oil or coolant; however, when it's cold there is frothy white stuff in the oil. I was quoted a base cost of $1100, without grinding the head; having the head ground costs about $200 extra. The dealer will only grind the head if they "feel it's necessary". I will have it done regardless of what they say. I live in the Boston area and I know of at least three independent mechanics who could do the job cheaper, so I willmost likely use one of them, it's tempting to use the dealer 'cause they are so close.
