Hey guys,

New Crossfire (coupe, 2005, MT) owner here. I'm a total Crossfire newbie but I love it. Already getting tons of compliments.

I recently got it checked out by a mechanic post-purchase and was told that the valve cover gaskets, and oil separator needs to be resealed. He said that the dripping oil could ruin the starter and cause other larger problems down the road. Estimated cost around $400-$500 dollars.

Does the cost sound right to you guys? And is this a necessary repair? Sounds like it might be. For what it's worth, I have a state inspection coming in May that I'll need to pass.

I'd really appreciate any thoughts, thank you so much!
