I paid for the rocker gasket to be replaced and since then the leak is worse and have had to top up 3 litres in 8 days. I spoke to the garage and they told me to take the car to have the engine cleaned so they can see where the oil is coming from.
I am very much a novice when it comes to cars so I don’t want to be ripped off after already having expensive repairs done. Any advice would be helpful.
The cure is a new modified cover with an attached rubber seal , you should not be able to buy a new seal anymore it is part of the cover now. Assuming it IS coming from the edge of the cover ...
