Alright here's a picture of where I found the oil.

(HadesOmega - I borrowed the front strut bar engine picture off your site - sorry for not asking but I needed a picture of the engine bay :) )

So how bad is it?? Do I need to get it fixed?? My dad said it was a leaky gasket and its way to expensive to fix (1000 bucks). All that will happen is I just burn a little oil... is this true?

Thanks.

Its probably the valve cover gasket. You could do it your self for around $50-$60. $1000 is way off though.

This might help you out..

Yeah I don't know....thats for Chrysler to do it...and he was just guessing.

Is it necessary??? I know some of the local DSM'ers could do it for me :)

yeah, that connection is where the VC gasket goes bro. Shhweeeewww, HG change is sum denero. chill for awhile unless its pissin outta that spot. also, keep an eye on her daily for new leaks and oil levels.

OK cool....I'm pretty sure it had it when I bought it - a year ago in February but it goes away in the summer. Could it just be because its so cold here lately?? Or am I just being dumb?? :D

Thanks guys.

Cold could effect it right at startup, but once the motor is warm, I wouldn't think that would effect it. Just my guess.

just take off the valve cover by taking off the coil packs, plug wires, then unbolt the vlave cover, get a new gasket from NAPA for 20 bucks, make sure to get the spark plug o ring gaskets too(4), take off the old, put on the new, bolt the valvecover back on, torque it down evenly but not too forceful(assuming you dont have a torque wrench), bolt the coil pack and wires back on and zoom zoom, no more leaky valve cover gasket and your enginebay can now be cleaned out an kept clean :-)
