    Black soot (?) in engine bay

    Gave the van's engine bay a bit of a clean last night and noticed some (what appeared to be) black soot spots, dry all over the engine bay. Had a blast out today and noticed the same this evening. Is this anything to worry about? Cheers

    Newbie potentially dumb question

    Just had a look underneath and it appears as though the oil is leaking from 2 of the 4 long 'things' adjacent to the rocker cover and not the cover itself - any ideas or is that a bit more serious? :cry:

    Newbie potentially dumb question

    Oil on off-side heat exchanger, possibly coming out of rocker head. Can I replace the seal without having to remove the engine? If so, is it an easy job? The most I've done is an oil change, (which I am very proud of!). Happy to give it a go unless you've to remove the engine :!: :!: :!:

    I've replaced the tailgate window rubber and there's a tiny patch of rough paint/metal on the bottom left hand side and I've had a trickle of water coming through into the van. Any thoughts on how to sort? Do I remove the seal/sand down/re-paint and replace the seal or would a lick of silicone...
