Oil In Water R32 Gtr

[Burgz32]

OK guy's, i have an R32 GTR, that's getting oil in the water both in the rad and in the overflow bottle

not a huge amount maybe 30-40 mill's every 400k's

engine is running fine, no misse's, no smoke, done comp and leak down test's, 150 in all 6, leak down is

3-4%, not bad for a donk with 120k's, rad pressure test show's nothing, oil pressure is fine also..

i'm not loosing oil or water, and it's only oil in the water no water in the oil..

any idea's??, i'm at lose!, have i cracked a head or block??, or is it something simple and common??

was thinking i may check the water cooler around the oil filter base, see if that's crack or corroded..

and idea's or prevous experence's would be greatlly appreciated

cheers Jon

I think you need to get that head gasket attended to.

If it's not the headgasket, it could possibly be the factory oil cooler (oil warmer, oil/water heat exchanger whatever you want to call it) is leaking as it deals with the engine coolant and engine oil.

this is what i'm checking tomorrow, i cant' see it being a head gasket, it would have shown up in the leak down and

comprestion test's...

any update? the factory oil/water heat exchanger is a common cause

How did you go? I appear to have the exact same problem.

Could be a cracked head...!

I had the same problem before my rebuild. Was a hairline crack in the block for me.

It had oil in the radiator, and overflow bottle, and was originally thought to be the head gasket. Further investigation proved otherwise.

Hope this isn't the case for you, could be expensive
