In a van, down by the river
So my Bro in law has a 95 SR-5 pick up.
He had a minor oil leak some time ago and the garage he goes to all the time changed out the valve cover gaskets.

Some time later, not long, they were leaking again, now worse. Same garage swapped out to new.

Then he tells me he lost 2 quarts out of it in the driveway! The shop says they will pay for new valve covers and he pays labor to put them in.

Does this sound right? What happened here?
 
Two quarts in the driveway would be quite a mess. Is it a 3liter? Does it look like a case of oil just blew up in there?

Wish I saw it, but I have little info.

I just said I would see if anyone on Mud had any input.
