Hi everyone, I posted a topic a while ago about my car making strange noise from the engine, and it turned out to be the camshaft.

So had it changed and i had my car one day the i had my car beeping at me for coolent level checked and had oil mixing with water.

The garaged called me today that the got the head of my engine back put a new gasket on and its still the same.

Any help or should i just buy another engine

I would take the water pipes off the oil cooler and join them together and start the car and see if oil is coming out off the cooler where the water pipes went on if no oil comes out it’s the head gasket if oil does come out it’s the cooler one off them may not off been fitted right or bad parts it does happen we Shad a new recon engine delivered to us and we put it in a van and that had not been done right and it smoked us out off the garage and we started to pull it apart as in the injectors and was said that’s not right pulled that engine back out sent it back and got a new one from the dealer and fit that and all was ok

I have had a word with boss and he said he can’t see that happening from the bottom end off the engine as you would not be able to keep water in it as the engine would just fill with the water it’s got to be the head or the oil cooler
