I bought my 15 cruze LT about 6 months ago and im at 48,000 miles and my valve cover gasket is leaking. Im just wondering if anyone knows if its an actual gasket or if its just RTV..

It is a rubber ring gasket that is seated in a channel around the valve cover perimeter and each spark plug opening.

This is a 5 year 100k powertrain warranty repair if you wish to take advantage of it.

Proper installation requires two dabs of silicone where the o-ring crosses over the joint between the head and timing cover.

I added silicone sealant across the whole front half when replacing the gasket for the second time.
