Oil in cooling system?

i have a chrysler voyager 2,0. the cooling system contains oil, looks like milk shake. no water in oil, oil is clean. car runs fine. what is the problem?Oil in cooling system?
Are you sure it's OIL?


Are you loosing motor oil?


If so... then head gasket, or intake gasket...





- BUT -


Most likely it's transmission fluid (ATF) if it's an automatic.


Inside your radiator there is a built in trans cooler... the plates rot inside, and usually leaks trans fluid into the cooling system. Which will still do the same as you describe. I bet that's whats going on... Usually a head gasket issue, does the opposite... and I see these internal leaks a lot.





If so... replace radiator... flush systems... you'll be fine





- Good Luck!Oil in cooling system?
your head gasket has gone ping!!!
head gasket gone
Transmission cooler in the radiator may be leaking allowing trans fluid into the cooling system and coolant into the trans. Pressure test the cooling system---disconnect the trans cooler lines and see if coolant comes out of the radiator fittings when you pressure test and check the trans fluid. If that's the problem, you'll need to replace the rad and flush both the cooling system and trans. Not very common but it does happen.
sounds like you have a crack or hole in the radiator, where the tranny lines hook up to. check the tranny oil, to see if you have anti-freeze in the tranny oil.
head gasket. no doubt, get it into a decent garage asap.
oooo its a headgasket problem.. i had this on my megane and it costed me over 拢700 so i got it repaired and it still happenend and eventually it needed a new engine.. so i had sell the car on ebay for 拢250... what a waste of money it was.. annyways good luck with yours.. but as far as i can think u have the headgasket problem.. DO NO TAKE IT TO BIG WELL KNOW GARAGES take to a oneman garage, it'll be cheap to do.. and then get rid of the car.. don't tell the buyer ! heh he he
blown head gasket,crack in head or block. some dirty rotten scoundrel put oil in your water.


auto. trans? check level. If trans cooler runs through rad. could be internally cracked
You may have a blown head gasket. It is possible to have oilin your water because your oil pressure is alot higher than the water pressure in your motor. If your car isnt overheating and it has an automatic transmission Your radiator could be letting your transmission fluid leak into your water. Trany fluid is usualy red but if it is old it will be almost black which could give you a milky color. Hope this helped
Might be a cracked block
blown head gasket or cracked block
More than likely the head gasket. Exxxpppeeennnsssiiivvveee.
