I've been getting a few spots in my driveway from time to time. Under the passenger side of the engine about even with the wheels. A trip to my local indy and a semi-casual inspection seems to indicate a timing cover leak. No serious loss of fluids, just a little wetness and some accumulation on the panels underneath that occasionally results in a drip or two.
My indy says an entire engine removal and cylinder head removal is needed to fix the problem. Really? Aren't there some things to try?
