Water level dropping!

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi
I have a 04 T5 T30 van.
It seems to be losing water, I can't find any external leaks, there's no loss of power( actually running really well), no smoke, no oil in the expansion tank. 
The only alarming thing is the filler cap does look a milky. which does suggest waters getting into the oil.
Ive taken it into our local garage, and they can't find what the problem is. ( they think possible head gasket, but with out the other symptoms there not sure.
plus ,I have a feeling the level drops once the engines off and cooling down,although I need to check this a few more times.
Anyway has anyone out there had this problem?
seems to be a bit on the forum about oil cooler seals , could this be the problem?

Cheers

	Hi Jam, I think you need to post this on the T5 Forum, next door... Maybe one of the Moderators will move it for you
