Well, once again the third time since Dec 16th, oil was seeping from the oil cooler area. This time he says the rear drivers side valve cover is leaking...Wow...When it rains it pours...I just hit 50K miles and crap starts happening...
Now, I'm wondering if they mis-diagnosed the original leak...Any thoughts? They replaced the oil cooler on Dec 16th, hmmmmmm??
Here is what they did, and parts used...Are valve covers on Jeep Wranglers known to leak after only 50K miles? I had a service tech tell me as I was picking up the vehicle that when a Jeep starts to leak, you will never stop it...I find that a very stupid comment to make...As long as there is no damage structurally to the motor of attached components these should be able to be repaired...He based his comment the miles on this vehicle...So he's say that i have to live with oil leaks for the duration of ownership...
Guess i will have to buy some drip pans then and use those just like the ones we used on aircraft in the Air Force.... I don't buy it, I've been around maintenance and performed maintenance most of my 67 years!!
