W.O.F Sheet says " Rocker Cover Gasket Leaking Oil, Oil Pressure sensor leaking oil, Engine crank seal leaking (Front) Rear Crank seal looks to be weeping"

So my question is, should I purchase this car having only done 98000 kms, straight body, tidy interior! Or does it sound like a bucket of trouble!

Ok that's not too bad then. Thanks for your advice :)

Just got quoted $90 for the front and if the rear needs doing $590approx!

gearbox needs to come off for the rear one, thats four hours labour right there. I would certainly get a second opinion, especially if it is one of those drive-thru WOF places that made the comments

I might be wrong but since when has an oil leak been a wof item!

Excessive oil on the exhaust pipe = smoke or fire.

Wasn't knocked back for the w.o.f just mentioned in the notes. I.E Lets make them worry enough that hopefully they'll bring it to our over priced workshop and get it fixed. Fail.

They said 6 or 7 hours labour in taking out the gearbox/ I presume they mean the transmission. To get to the rear seal etc. Plus parts.
