Oil leak at 80K

Sometime in 2017, I took my car in for a check up at the dealer for something else, they told me there was oil leak from head gasket and it needs to be replaced. But since I didn't see an oil drops on the floor, and I don't trust the dealer, I just ignored.

But starting last month, I noticed increase in oil drops on the floor and I could literally see oil meter dropping while driving on the freeway.

After reading this thread, I tried replacing the oil cap and it cost me $24 including shipping. And now, there is no oil leak anymore.

It could have been $2k at the dealer, but fixed it for $24. Thanks to you all.
