need to help a cts owner

[o3cts]

Whats going on ladies ,and gents. I was changing my oil when the next door neighbor came by, and told me he has a 04 cadillac cts 3.2. Didnt know they made 04 with the 3.2L? Anyhow he asked if i could look at his because its been driving rough for the past 3 weeks , so like a good neioghbor i checked it out . The car has 55,000+ miles on it. Looked around first everything looked good. So i decided to check his plugs. Took his plugs off to check them out , and the whole passanger side was filled with oil. Im talking about to the brim ,plug , and coil was filled with oil. I used some rags to soak up the oil. took out the plugs and checked them. Went to the drivers side , and no oil on ,or around the spark plugs , and coil packs.

Anybody knows what this means?? I told him maybe he broke a seal ,or what not. any info that i can throw to this guy would be helpful. He should be starting up on the forum i told him about it, so maybe he can add more detail. Thanks

Valve cover gasket needs to be tighted. (I am assuming the oil was on the outside of the plugs.)

Minor inconvenience.

Good luck.

thanks man. Yes the oil was only on the outside , and only in the spark plug coil ,area. so i should tell him to try and tighten his valve cover gasket. any more info to throw at him, or should he just leave it alone?.
