Recently replaced my valve cover gaskets thinking it would cure the oil leaking onto the exhaust manifolds. My thinking appears to be about half right; The remaining leak seems to be coming from the rear cam seals, especially on the passenger side. Has anybody done this on their own (replacing the cam seals)?

Is this a job for a skilled (but impatient) do-it-your-selfer with lower back problems, and little enthusiasm for jobs with minimal working clearances (but doesn't want to spend big bucks at a dealer, either)?

Any help, advice, general observations, thoughts, reflective thinking, or lectures, name calling, etc. will be read fully, and much appreciated!

 

i just had a similar problem, oil was leaking from the car, i took it to the dealership, and my cam adjusters were messed up, its a $1000 repair but i still have the preowned warranty for another 8 days. they said they fixed it, but the car is still leaking oil
