hannahmariee24 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Would anybody be able to maybe help me on if they think this is an oil leak or maybe my valve cover gasket is going bad. Oh and also is it normal for your car to have a some air coming out of where you put the oil in? Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bangster Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I just cleaned up my 2015 as it has accumulated some nasty stuff around the spark plugs, but very little oil (mainly sand, dirt, rocks somehow). I am not sure I would call that a leak as a seepage. I would check the PCV valve but yes, there will be some pressure from the oil fill, but not much, and shouldn't be any blowby smoke. How many miles? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital_Dad Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 If you can feel air coming from the oil fill cap then I would say the o-ring gasket is bad and you need to go check it out. If it is bad go to your local salvage yard and grab the best looking one you can find for a few dollars. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trippz Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 The smaller specks up front lead me to believe something is leaking under pressure. Like during hard driving.. possibly the filler cap.. not sure what that sensor to the extreme left of the valve cover is yet tho so I'd change that cap clean the motor with engine cleaner or break cleaner and see if it happened again... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
