Default Re: Valve Cover Leak - 8k miles

This is one little weakness in the 06. Mine had less than 2000 miles & the leak was in the same area. Although I have done this many times in my past too, I have the lifetime pwr. train warranty so left it with my dealer to keep my protection in order. It took 3 days of rental car use til they finished this small job. One to diagnose & of course order the part from Chg.,since nothing in stock for our cars except oil & filters. Day two discovered wrong gasket shipped to dealership. Day 3 arrived o.k. in early morning & got call about 2 p m to pick the black shadow! Loaner car was a P.T. Cruiser. What a disappointment. I drive very conservative, & even so at each turn I thought I was going to tip over from its high stance & weight dist.
