I don't remember hearing this before, but do you think it could be a possible source for a leak? (oil) I really dont want to take off my intake and remove the rear valve cover to find that everything is okay, when those valve cover seals come out, they dont like to go back in with out a little modification.




FAding hissing right after you shut the engine off?

IF so, its probably the AC system pressure equalizing past the expansion valve.
