I would suggest if you cannot spell Rocker Cover,leave it to the professionals.You don't have to drain the oil .It is a matter of taking the bolts or screws out and remove the old gasket and put new one in.Caution do not over tighten the screws or bolts otherwise you will squeeze the gasket and it will leak

haha sorry "rocker", yep know not to tighten the bolts too much, thanks for the heads up.

Why do you want to change it ? leaking? Are you sure its the gasket? Maybe the halfmoons?

As above, make sure you get the half-moon rubbers when you do the rocca/rocket/other variations i've seen rocker gasket.

(man I wish there were rockets under my covers) =-]

some mechanics cant spell anyway?

check the torque on the screws. I've found that on my car, the screws were too loose. I tightened them up to factory spec and it hasn't leaked.

The reason why I knew it wasn't the gasket, is because the leak was on the upside of the engine. Bit hard to describe, but it wasn't on the tilted lower side, was the side tilting up.

Having said that, nothing lasts for ever. in an r32, since they're 5+ years old again, the gaskets may very well be gone.

and if it still leaks after that get some black sealent on it.
