Hi,

As above please see my troubles. Today I replace rocker gasket using grease (not hylomar) cleaned everything, made sure clip is super tight. Then started her up and a flipping leak again. Same place , nearside rocker on the bottom right as I look at it. Dripping substantially.

Have fitted new cover, clip, gasket, push rod seals, push rod tubes. Defo looks to be rocker cover leaking. Doing my head in as I cannot drive it anywhere. Last time I used it I put some wynns engine stop leak stuff in there to try and slow a push rod leak (now fixed). Would this do anything?

Where is best for another super tight clip and a new rocker cover?

Please advise as I am losing hope with this bleddy van.

Josh

As said use genuine covers
Are the JK covers and clips genuine VW with the stamp on?
The grease I use is standard high melting point grease used cold on a cold cylinder head.
