valve cover leaking oil
I think my valve cover is leaking oil. I have a 2.5L. Is this a common problem for the 2.5L? It's probably not going to be a hard job to change it but if there are any crazy things I need to know, I'd appriciate any advice.

nah its common for this to happen to all vehicles. All you need to do is replace the valve cover gasket. Simple change.

Cool thanks I've already ordered the parts, and some other toys for me. I have to keep some self control when I order parts or I'll end up with some random stuff and a really high end cost.
