F11 N47 (2010) engine oil leak

CmdllbF11 · 04-26-2014, 01:41 PM

Can anyone shed any light? Got an oil leak on N/S (r/h) at rear of engine. Very slight but causes burnt oil smell to fill cabin via vents. Appears to drip onto manifold (I think)

: No oil on driveway or elsewhere in engine bay - as far as I can see.

Here are some pics of the area/leak and where I think the point of leak is.

In case anyone is interested this was a Cam Cover Gasket leak. Fixed under warranty (AUC).
