So garage replaced rockercover gasket and camsahft seal....well they replaced rockercover but not camshaft cap...so i took it back as it smoked still..
Now the cap is replaced and the smoke gone..moreless...
time to time I can smell abit of burning smell still...I have been told it can be a oil resitude ...going to leave it for a time being...
I still think the camshaft cap is not enough..I would personally replace the camshaft seal which is not apparently difficult to do by other a member of other forum.
Why the garages always trying to take a shortcut..
