Thanks S81 appreciate your help, today I fitted a new right side rocker cover which comes with gasket, also replaced o ring on one solenoid one which fits in through the cover but still have oil leak, after closer inspection looks like it’s coming from around the solenoid housing so the o ring a purchased from eBay must have been wrong size. Will have to go to local dealers to get correct o ring.
Just to add the inlet solenoid seems fine/dry So didn’t see any point in touching that. Last edited by Kazs8; 5th February 2021 at 07:50 PM. |

My vvts weren't leaking but I have car off road for winter and am doing preventive maintenance as I'm going to drive it over the summer and don't want to be mechanicing then, i have changed rocker cover gaskets( had oil leaking into the plug wells in both sides) ,and vvt o rings (o rings were hard on all 4),and I've removed the manifold and currently doing a carbon clean and few other jobs ,vvts were easy to get at with manifold out
