Hi,
New to the forum
Got a 2013 500L pop, 1.4 95hp. believe this has the engine 843A1000
Noticed an oil burning smell. took a look underneath and sump had oil on it and oil was getting onto the exhaust. cleaned it up and took a look around but couldnt see anything obvious. Took the coils out and the spark plug wells had some oil in them also.
Im thinking this is rocker cover gasket.
I cant seem to find a clear indication of the complexity of replacing the rocker cover gasket. Im quite spanner handy and pretty certain this should just be a remove anchillaries where needed and undo roker cover and replace, but my motor factors have asked the question of 'its not a cambelt off job is it'? Its not is it?
Any other culprits it could be? The car did have a cambelt change before we purchased it but i dont think that would have disturbed anything rocker cover related?
thanks for any answers
Cheers
Neill
