    Hi
    Any one technical know If It's likely(or possible) to crack a head between water jacket and oil gallery?

    I have got some oily sh**e in my expansion bottle, had some over 8 months ago cleaned it out but now It's back!
    Question is,is It engine oil?
    Or is It ATF fluid from a leaky cooler in the Rad?
    Performance is good, no light or white smoke and had a combustion gas test and It was negative! As Iv'e had the rad out sooo many times for mods and repairs(It's leaking again) i wondered if the cooler was damaged and leaking into the coolant!

    I'm gonna bypass the inbuilt rad cooler when i get an ally one made as i already have 2x tranny coolers(air to oil) to see if this helps!!

    Cheers

    Saw a thread about this a while back, something to do with the engine oil cooler gasket was leaking.

      That makes interesting reading Vince!

      The deposits in the expansion bottle are not a huge amount and i'm not using a lot of oil! but It seems a possible option!

      thanks for the link

      Cheers

          The oil filter is on the other side of the engine on the 2.4 if that helps.
