PROBLEM WITH OIL LEAKING.

Hello, I have a clk 55 amg, had oil leakage from ther gasket valve cover(typical problem of this engine) in the passenger side, and decided to replace the gasket, with all the usual procedure (new gasket, cleaning of the edges, and tighten of the cover at the correct torque) With this, the leaks stopped, but after 20 days of use, it has suddenly returned to filter oil.


Any ideas? What I can do more now? As it is possible that with new gasket replaced, continue to losing oil?


Thank you

You need to use an oe Mercedes gasket. They are the only ones that work

All of the aftermarket gaskets are too thin and alow oil to pass. I know from experiance. The oe ones are not to expensive and worth it.
