I have a 2012 g37 sedan with 47k miles. It appears the rear timing cover is seeping oil at the top left near the valve cover. Does anyone else have this problem and is it normal?

Looks normal to me and you have nothing to worry about.

mine seep in the front:/ been that way for over 30k (91k on the car now) miles dealer keeps telling me its nothing. I guess the engine needs to stop LOL

The picture was after I wiped it off. But it keeps coming back.

SonicVQ

LOL...

It is hard to judge how bad a sweat/leak is when you show it after you wipe it clean.

rsingerG37

Yeah true. Lol. Just seeing if other people have or had this. I will leave it alone for a while and retake.

Any kind of oil leak is a bad thing. No matter who tells you different, their nuts.

SonicVQ

I don't know if this is normal, but this "leak" is nothing to worry about.
Generally a "leak" drips, I would call this a slight "sweat"

Enjoy your car and don't worry about it.

Agreed. Especially when it only has 47k miles on it. No oil should be leaking/seeping from anywhere.

It doesn't look bad singer, but i would take it to an infiniti dealer who's familiar with the cheap infiniti timing gasket issue and see what they say. Don't necessarily get it fixed there whatever the case, just get an experienced confirmation if it's anything you should worry about then go from there....

SonicVQ

I just gave an "experienced confirmation"

Took it to the dealership today and they're going to fix it. 17 hours in labor and a Q50 loaner.
