Good outcome, Paul. When I read your first post I was going to suggest a tube of instant gasket as the alternative.
Let us know how it turns out.
Parts are ordered through auto doc waiting for delivery.
Will update you once it’s done. I’m just doing my homework to see how easy the injectors come out. It’s a job I’ve done before on Ford transits and Land Rover defenders but not on a Hyundai. They should “pop” out.
But I do wonder why the oil leak from the rocker cover gasket has gone so long without repair. It’s been going on for a good few years I know this as I checked the mot history and it had an oil leak recored for the last 3 inspections.
It could just be because it’s only a minor leak and to be honest i haven’t had to top up the oil since I’ve had it (9 months) and the reading on the dip stick is just under max.
I went looking for the leak to fix it as any genuine person/mechanic would. I confirmed that it was still leaking as I steamed cleaned the engine bay a week before I went to look for the leak.
I did find a few loose bolts on the rocker cover where the leak was. Which I have tightened up. The leak has slowed down however it’s still blowing through the injector seals on the rocker cover so I’ll just replace all the seals in one hit.
I was tempted to leave the leak but I just can’t do it.
Also there were pools of oil where the injectors sit.
