17 leaking from bolts on the valve cover...

[Booth9999]

17 leaking driver side valve cover, just got her back from 2nd pan replacement and was smelling burning oil. No signs under the truck so I was looking under the hood and saw moisture at valve cover bolts; we pulled the engine over off and the oil is pooling in the valley between the manifold and the cover. Once it leaks enough it spills over and goes down the the exhaust manifold. Anyone see this one yet?

Did they also replace your valve covers under the TSB while it was there and you didn't know? Or this is a sign you need the new covers?

Link to TSB plz. No valve cover work as of yet; drop off Monday for repairs.

Look for all the valve cover threads here.

at it again .. spreading fear but no evidence to back it up.

I ask again, why are you on this forum? Do you own a Ford? Do you work for Dodge? Chevy? The Russians?

For real... A bit of research is pretty easy. Raptor911 must be living under a rock or trying to make itself feel better about its purchase.

She doesn’t own a vehicle at all and will be banned soon just like before

it’s always worth celebrating when this idiot gets banned
Rejoice!

But the best way to deal with her is just report her posts as trolling.

I have a 17 and its leaking from the same bolt on the same side as yours. Did u have yours fixed yet? Looks like the intake has to come off to get to the valve cover. I hate dealing with the dealer on shit like this. I'm on the fence about doing the work myself or taking it to the dealer. I believe each bolt has an oring on it which would make it a easy repair but I'm not yet 100% on that.
