I actually knew this was weeping BUT it never weep'd enough to smell or bother me. I also read in the warranty booklet that this LPW inspection is EVERY 5 years, at any Chrysler Dealership. So, they have my girl, I should get her back tomorrow afternoon.
Got her back late today, not a smudge of oil anywhere. I'll have to clean the top air cleaner/engine cover as a little grease got deposited here and there. All they wanted was a signature. I looked up the detailed parts list prices, just the parts were (Chrysler $845.90), Ebay (High $974.63) Low ($584.20). This is just for the parts (internet search no particular site), no idea what labor would be for it. The part numbers are:
COVER-CYLINDER HEAD Part#: 5096479AA
COVER-CYLINDER HEAD Part#: 5096480AA
GASKET-CYLINDER HEAD COVER Part#: 5097104AA
GASKET-CYLINDER HEAD COVER Part#: 5097105AA
Sure am glad I have that LPW and it was 100% covered!
