[QUOTE="Boss379, post: 1592487, member: 22737"] Looking for thoughts on what all I should do before I tear into the heads. 2014 118k, 2 weeks out of extended warranty, history of engine overheating at 60k about 3 years ago when radiator went out. Last week, just 3 days after I changed the oil and filter noticed an oil spot of driveway by driver's front tire... [ATTACH=full]308532[/ATTACH] This is what I pulled out of the overflow/fill reservoir...some great chocolate shake action. [ATTACH=full]308533[/ATTACH] No signs of water in oil (dipstick, fill cap, or when oil filter was removed) but oil level was high on dipstick by about 1" from where I think it should have been when I changed the oil. On the coolant side the reservoir and the thermostat housing were the worst but the radiator and lower radiator hose hose had more of a mix of coolant with oil spots. Engine runs fine, no white smoke out of tail pipe. Hoping for the simplest cause/fix I replaced the oil filter cooler. After 3 flushes (so far) it doesn't look promising (first flush was actually more clear than 2nd and 3rd...left to right) [ATTACH=full]308534[/ATTACH] Maybe will try a few more flushes (ran out of time tonight) and then off to compression checks and scope the cylinders. Any other ideas or tell-tale giveaways on what has failed? Thanks in advance! - Joe [/QUOTE]
