I noticed small patches of oil around both banks and it seems like rocker cover gaskets are caput
And I suppose one follow up questions is, should that me a major concern or perhaps normal wear and tear (with the car on 100K ish now)?
Cheers
Thx... that'd be my first point of call.douglas96 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 13, 2018 10:48 amIf it's just a slight mist of oil and it's not pooling up between the inlets and the heads I wouldn't be worried. Unless it's losing oil over what is specified in the owners manual of course.
Almost every engine I have ever seen has a very small oil seep from the rocker covers.
Best thing to do is to clean it using a degreaser and that will let you see how bad it really is and how long it takes to accumulate.
