not trying to hijack your thread or anything, but i am having the same exact problems (well says my mechanic)
I took my car in and they recommended i get the cam seals, crank seal, and the valve cover gaskets.
When i change my oil every 3k i always get about 6 quarts back. I just happen to smell oil when i drive the car after a while. Not while driving, but when i get out.
Will i notice anything after having these seals and gaskets done? (smoother engine) or is it more of a piece of mind knowing that your car is leak free?
It was kinda like what soobie said, my mechanic said that having these oil leaks could start a fire when it dripped onto the exhaust...
Thanks in advance, Chris
