    Hi all,

    The prius is slowly leaking oil, I've traced it to the timing tensioner gasket as there is fresh oil on the ground and around the tensioner. I pulled the tensioner, cleaned the area on the tensioner and timing cover with a scuff pad, purchased a new gasket and replaced the tensioner. Oil is still leaking. Any thoughts how to fix this?
