I got pissed and super glued it the valve cover. Just enough to make it stay in the grooves to get it installed. No leaks. RTV on the half moons

Not strange at all yours is a 2012. 09s may have had Malaysian gaskets? My replacement says made in Japan! The 09s had a shrinkage issue, possibly due to poor material quality. My buddy has no issues with his 07. Consider yourself lucky.
+1 if you have anything but an 09, you probably won't have problem. |

My 2009 leaked... nowhere near as bad as an old vw. I let it go until I checked the valves at 7000 miles. Valves were in spec and no more leaks. It's a tight fit even with the tank off. You want to make sure it's on right before snugging up the valve cover so you don't pinch it. 800 miles and no leaks.

Replaced the gasket yesterday. No need to guess the year of manufacture :eek:
