Oil dripping from the backside of the Intake Manifold / Knock Sensor Replacement

Dear All,

first of all I have to say thank you: There are very usefull hinds posted about knock sensor replacement. I did read to many posts on my resarch, so donīt know who came up with it, but replacement of knock sensors without removing the manifold worked very well for me, following the guidance given (remove alternator and unbolt & move AC Compressor about 2 inch to the right). Thanks again!

But I did face a new problem (like many others before): Dripping oil comming from the bottom center of the intake manifold. I did find quite some posts touching this topic so I know its common), but I still wonder about the root cause of this problem. Some say its PCV Valve related, but others state they are running with a new one and the problem remains. Maybe by now somebody on this forum was able to nail it down, so I am asking...

Thanks a lot!

Marcus
