Leak was first noticed right at 11,000 miles. Noticed the smell of burning oil cruising on the highway. Popped hood and was attacked with the odor. Noticed a small amount of smoke coming from passenger side/front. Could see oil residue burnt onto exhaust flange just below passenger side valve cover.
Brought car in for repair, was diagnosed as a small leak and given back for holiday weekend. Returned the next week for the repair. Next day I picked the car up and was told that the lower timing cover was resealed. Went about my business, and within the same tank of gas I noticed the odor return. Popped the hood again, same oil residue/smoke/odor present (as well as all the residue from the original leak which was not washed down :thumb down: ).
Returned yesterday to drop the car off again. Got a follow up call today to explain that the engine would be coming out and the full timing cover assembly resealed. I told them that I don't care if they have the car for an extended period, I just want it resealed properly so that I don't have to deal with any more oil leaks.
