Minor oil leakage near valve cover gasket
My 99.5 1.8qtms just had an oil change
at 70,000 miles and the valve cover gasket is
leaking a small amount of oil. Not much, but
enough to be worried. It is more like an
oil residue that a leak.
Should I replace it now or wait until my oil
change at 75,000 miles ?
Any input is appreciated.

Re: no its not normal.....I noticed the same thing a while back and the dealer
replaced the camshaft seals along with the valve cover gasket along with some other things to fix it.
If your still under warranty get it fixed...
