2016 LGX V6 Engine Valve Cover Oil Leaking
Just rolled into 80K miles, and the dang valve cover gaskets look like they have been leaking for well over 20K miles, it was light surface oil slick, and on the "underside" of the block, so it was hard to see with just the hood open doing an oil change or cleaning. There was some that finally got onto the exhaust and the smell gave it away, then upon closer inspection..holy crap!! Anyone else having this issue? I am searching for TSB's , but no matter what, my crap-ass dealer will give me grief, so warranty was out at 60K, too bad they will say..
Anyone replaced theirs or torn the engine down that far? How difficult? Looks like it will be pretty easy, mostly getting the intake and fuel connections dismantled..

Did you find a solution to this? Were you able to do it yourself? I’m dealing with the same issue and looking around for some guidance

I traded it off.. Not only had the bad valve cover gaskets, computer was malfunctioning, one bad strut, shitty floor mats worn out, seat back frame broke, transmission slipping again after the fluid upgrade, dumped it after the computer started to fall..
