I just took my 02 wrx wagon in to the shop, and they said that I have an oil leak from my valve cover gaskets. I saw smoke coming from under the radiator resivoir, and their some black crap on the sides of my engine. I bought the valve cover gaskets. I'm going to take it into the shop on saturday. Should I pick up any more seals to change while their changing my valve cover gaskets? I hate the smell of burning oil, wanna keep my baby running.

Thanks for the help

 

i know you need some sort of half moon gaskets, and some seals fore the park plug holes or something. my passenger side is leaking too and im looking to change them. let me know how it goes, as im looking to change mine out.

 

Do you have to remove the timing belt assembly to get to remove the valve covers?

 

Do the plugs while you're down there too.
