Hey everyone,
I've got an oil leak that i need fixed up for rego and i've pin pointed where it is. There's a break in the rocker cover seal/gasket. Can anyone give me a ballpark figure of how much this will cost to get repaired/replaced by the pros? Keeping in mind that they'll need to rip off the intercooler and maybe some other shit just to get at it.
Cheers!

my 4AGE was $100 to change the rocker cover gasket, maybe just ad on another hours labour?
although mine still leaker after as there was some warping, so silicone has been used to stop that

My 1GGTE ones were $50 each trade price. I'd say yours will be a tiny bit less, but add on about an hours labour if you don't change them yourself.

 $100 and an hours labour??? You are referring to the CAM covers? Surely they couldn't cost $100. They take less than 15mins to replace!

4ageeza i was saying possibly add on another hour in labour for the i/c being removed and put back on with maybe other stuff.
i was quoted $100 although it wasn't near that because i had it done when i did the timing belt and some other stuff done. as it was they took longer than what they anticipated and chopped off heaps of the labour for the work so they met the initial quote.
