Default UPDATE: Oil Weep/Leak

Any ideas/suggestions? 22K miles on the car still under warranty.

Thanks in advance.

I have attached a couple of pics- one is the general location, and the other 2 are close ups.


Took it to my dealer, it is the valve cover gaskets leaking, they are overnighting the gaskets pick up the Xfire tomorrow.

Fix under warranty and no questions asked!

Lake Norman Chrysler near Charlotte NC is a good dealer, I have never had an issue with a repair that needed to be done under warranty.

Thanks again to all for your help.

Don
