Leaking Valve Cover
I notised there is a tad bit of oil starting to leak from the top of my valve cover - car has 5K miles.
Anyone else have this happnen yet? I'm not worried as I know it will be taken care of under warranty and I'll get a rent a car while it's being serviced

I just had mine redone. It's only billed as a half hour labor and they scraped out the silicone and re-sealed it, and they replaced the main valve cover gasket as well since they took the valve cover off to make the job easier. Under my extended powertrain warranty I have a $100 deductible and I'm not so sure that It'll come close to that on my bill which I haven't gotten yet.
They said it's a very easy job and you could probably do it yourself. The biggest problem they had was trying to get the old silicone out of the groove around the sealing surface.
