Hello, this is caused by a valve cover leaking oil. you will need to replace the valve cover gasket to correct this concern.

Am changing plugs on 2006 aveo. Found oil in the

Yeah, kind of. The valve cover gasket needs replaced. The seals around the plugs go first because of heat. If the oil mark was near the top of the plug boot, replace the valve cover gaskets/seal. If it was near the bottom, slap in the plugs and wires.

We took off the breather cover on a 2004 chevy trailblazer and there was water in it

Sounds like you may have a bad valve cover gasket. same thing was happening on my wife's Chevy Aveo. Valve cover gasket was worn and when I replaced it and cleaned plug wells, issue was resolved.As for the breather, I really wouldn't know why there's water in there.Only thing I would suggest there is to check your antifreeze level. Is it water from the antifreeze?

Spark plug tube seals are leaking and need replaced along with the valve cover gasket. Any parts store should be able to get them for you. if left unrepaired it will eventually cause misfiring.

I HAVE A CHEVY AVEO 2005 IT HAS MOTOR OIL IN THE SPARK PLUGS WHAT COULD BE WRONG. ANA

this sounds like the engine could have some bad valve guide seals allowing oil to be pumped into the combustion chamber of the engine, or you could have some broken pistion rings in the cylinders, i would get the vehichle checked out soon for this problem.

2006 chevy aveo. the dipstick reads oil is full. but there is oil in the spark plug holes.did the mechanic overfill last oil change. that was 4000kms ago. dipstick still reads full oil

You have oil in the plug holes because the seals that are supposed to keep oil out are leaking-you need to remove the valve cover to replace them.

We change the spark plug of my aveo 2004, and we found out that there is a oil leak on the third cylinder, what may cause the problem?

The valve cover has rubber o-ring seals that fit into the valve cover and seal oil out of the spark plug wells. Over time, they get hard and shrink, allowing oil to enter the plug wells from the top of the engine. You need to remove the valve cover and replace the valve cover gasket and o-ring seals. The seals should come with the valve cover gasket set.

Hope this helps,
Dave
