| I have replaced the rocker cover gaskets an now have an oil leak on drivers side. I have tried another set of new seals but still leaking I have also tried the old seals back on and still leaking. I have tried a gasket sealer on the seal and let it set but its still leaking. could the rocker cover be warped?
any one had this issue or any ideas of how to fix?
thanks. | |

| Did you replace and re-seal the half moons as well, What about the bolt seals, What sealant did you use? Threebond. Roughly where is it leaking from. | |

| Hi sorry yes I replaced the half moons and bolt seals, can remember the name of the sealer but got it from a Subaru dealer and it was grey and not cheap. I can see exactly were it is leaking from but it's some were along the bottom more towards the front of the car and running back over, had the camera down and cant see anything | |

| Everything around that area is dry, had the cover looked at today and it was warped, got them to machine it for me and our it back on and it leaked again Had the every seal and gasket is new everything is straight and flat and still leaking | |
