#71372, "Headgasket Leak!!?? Common with 420a?"


          

Ok, i sent my car in to get timing belt, waterpump, ect changed for preventative maintenance. At the same time, I had him check what appeared to be an oil pan gasket leak.

Well, today I got my car back and I asked him about the leak--He said that its not the oil pan gasket, but the head gasket. And thats its no big deal, just keep an eye on the oil until you get the $$ for a new gasket. Or, he said you can take off the valve cover and tighten a 15mm bolt on the driver side to see if that helps (if its a bit loose).

To those quite familiar with the 420a motor, does this sound right? Is it bad that its leaking? Its not leaking alot, but its leaked onto the oil pan where it made me think thats where its comming from. Anywyas, thanks for any thoughts / opinions-
