oil housing gasket leak

so its starting to sweat at the seals. not sure how much longer it has.
I'm at 65k kms.
is there anything else I should do at the same time.

so I guess this isn't covered under cpo warranty.
indy can do it for 250ish
doesn't seem to difficult a diy. but probably better to have this done by a pro.

They will cover it under the CPO. Just take it to the dealer. They did mine about 6 mos ago.

It's not too bad of a DIY, but for $250, I might consider having the shop do it. You also need thermostat gasket and orings for oil lines. Maybe some coolant depending on how much you spill.

For $250, I'd pay to have it done. You'll spend the better part of your day doing it. For that price, drop it off and go fuck around and then go pick it up.

Had mine done under cpo. Did the valve cover gasket as well.

Here its covered. they found mine during an oil change and I paid the deductible and that was it.
