I have an '01 with a exterior coolant leak, and after the last oil change and seafoam, what looked like some evaporated coolant inside the oil cap, and my valve cover gaskets are leaking.
The oil and coolant both look good so if my head gasket is leaking, it isn't too bad yet...
I have to do the valve covers so obviously will be doing the intake manifold gasket as well, so I've got those gaskets to pick up and the little rubber grommet thingys.
Are there any other parts I should be replacing at the same time?
As far as the head gasket goes, I'm still monitoring it since it showed up right after I did the seafoam thing, but I need to make a decision soon since I'll be in there already for the above mentioned stuff.
If I do tackle the head gasket, are there any tips and will I need more parts than just the things I've listed above?
I won't be doing the timing belt unless it's a mess when I get in there since it was already done about 30k kilometres ago. I guess I should also do new exhaust manifolds or headers though :icon_question:
Is there anything else I should do while I'm in there?
