yep had this on mine

it comes form that small cam carrier bolt - seeps from under the head - i just took it
out cleaned it and put a dab of sealer under the head - been right ever since
 
Unfortunately this is normal when it comes to Renault - they don't use any gaskets only sealant, and sloppy as they are, sometimes they don't use it enough or at all on some places.

Got rid of that problem when I changed my cams.

Would it be worth taking it to the garage? Or doing it myself? Which sealent did you use?
Thanks

up to you really - i did mine as by the time i had travelled back and forth to the dealer it was far easier
and quicker just to do it myself

as for sealer use either silicone/rtv or could use a bit of super glue to provide a seal
 
All sorted now misses took it in for me sat morning as i was working, and it was all fixed in 45 mins, I've done a 120 mile trip since and all ok, thanks guys for your help
