Default Any leaking cam seals?

brought in for a 60k oil change to dealer(to at least have proof in case of sludge)....they found that the cam seal was causing an oil leak. Turns out I had the same seal replaced at 35K. Bizarre. I'm on my 2nd cam seal in 60K. Anyone else? ps. $600 later....

Default I changed my 1st set at 80k - make sure you get the original ones

with the metal ring. If you go with the new one that is all rubber, it will leak for sure.
