Replying to: toomanyfumes (Jan 31, 2009 7:46 pm) Unfortunately guys, I have had everything replaced, and this still happens. The mechanics told me that it is a flaw in the LS engine. I love this car, but it is very high maintenance. Now I am having the overheating problem.

Replying to: lsmummy (Mar 23, 2009 7:44 am) I don't know of any "flaws" with the LS engine per se. Some of the components have issues (cops, hydraulic fan) but those can be fixed.

Replying to: akirby (Mar 23, 2009 9:34 am) Yeah, I guess flaw is the wrong word, but the guy I talk to from Lincoln told me that this specific problem with the valve covers leaking is VERY common. Like I said, I have a love/hate relationship with this car. I have done and have had a lot of work done to it.

Replying to: lsmummy (Mar 23, 2009 11:49 am) Yes, the valve cover gaskets and cops are a known problem. I thought you were talking about some fatal flaw that couldn't be fixed. Replies to this message: lsmummy (Mar 23, 2009 12:07 pm) akirby (Mar 24, 2009 5:19 am)

Replying to: akirby (Mar 23, 2009 11:58 am) No, but it feels that way when I had everything replaced and it is happening again. Is there possibly something else causing it again? Replies to this message: akirby (Mar 24, 2009 5:19 am)

Replying to: lsmummy (Mar 23, 2009 12:07 pm) If they're leaking again then either they weren't actually repaired the first time or the repair was done incorrectly. The problem was with the original gasket - not the engine itself. Once repaired properly it shouldn't return.
