[mohsin-212]

Assalam Alaikum
Today when I removed plastic cover from engine I saw oil on tappet cover around coils and specially in the left side ... Sharing some pictures and also I made a short video.from where is this oil is coming ?? If its tappet cover gasket then why on upper side around coils

[chinyoti]

Mostly due diesel and oil spray in the engine room after car wash.

All other sludge can be because of multiple seal leaks.

Check the rubber seal on the oil cap!
when was the last time engine bay was cleaned?

sir if you are washing engine and using diesel or kerosene oil this is ultimate result. rubber seals start to fail and oil seepage result like this.

immediately wash whole engine bay with any dish washing solution 50% water 50% dish washing detergent thoroughly clean with cloth. use car and then observe any oil seepage at all such points.

please check below for leaks:

1. rubber rings for plug wells.
2. o ring on vvti actuator
3. tappet cover gasket.

if any found leaking, replace with original without using any silicon, just clean both surfaces, put gasket and torque ranch all bolts in correct pattern.

also check n replace rubber gasket in the oil lid.
