I'm gettin' what looks like oil seepage around the fill cap, I have oil on my plug wire cover and around the edges...also looks like a tiny tiny bit of oil around dipstick tube...is it just the cap or am I looking at something much bigger?

thanks!
Vandy

P.S. i'm more concerned about the cap AND the dipstick...the cap's new but i could just be garbage, but with both together is it a major sign of something else?

i just noticed my car is having the same problem

my gsx had a little bit of oil "stain" around the oil fill cap and on the plug wire cover and across the top of the cover. wiped it off. dont know if it will come back though.

the rubber gasket on the cap gets hard with age. I think you can buy a replacementgasket from the dealer for a few bucks or just spring for a whole new cap if you feel so inclined. Both my cars leak a TON.
Oh, and as far as the dipstick is concerned, don't worry about it unless it has enough force to pop the dipstick out when you boost. Then you're rings could be going...

Agreed on the bad gasket. Mine is basically non existent and I have oil everywhere. It's a cheap part and easy to fix.
