Do you think my mehcanic noticed this?

[Aimster]

My warranty is over tomorrow and they have had my car for a week.

I told them the oil separator needed to be fixed and the car was leaking oil. Now I think I should have told him to replace the valve cover instead, but I'm hoping he noticed that himself.

Under the valve cover there is oil (u can see its wet) and the car smokes and smells like burning rubber. So that sounds like a cover problem not an oil separator problem...

If he was going to change the oil separator would he notice the leaking oil under the valve cover and replace that too?

This is not a BMW stealership. This is Carmax
