Is there a solution for the Kia Sportage valve cover oil leak? Is it a common issue? I bought a 10-year-old manual second-hand car.

Let it go for ten years, don't bother with it.

Normally, I just replace the seals. I've changed two already [I want some peace], but they're cheap. Just a few dozen bucks.

I spent 200 on replacing an aluminum cover and a gasket. Guys, is this price too high?

The original car parts are all plastic shells. Replacing them with a pad and some sealant should do the trick. You can also replace it with an aluminum cover.

I've also heard that just changing to an aluminum cover will fix it. Mine is leaking oil too.

I just replaced the valve cover gasket and spark plug seals myself. The old ones were so aged that they turned into hard plastic and made a cracking sound.

Just replace it with an aluminum cap.
