There could be a number of problems as to why there is oil in your radiator and it is important to be aware that your engine will have a serious problem if this happens. Arguably the most common cause is a blown head gasket which runs through the upper and lower sections of the engine. |

[quote author=indigene post=28070486][/quote] your headgasket is gone.Stop driving teh car and have the top head removed to replace the gasket, its no big deal but it would if you dont replace the seal.The reason you got Oil mixing with water is cos there is a leak within the top and the lower part of your engine hence water is sipping into oily components 1 Like |
