Flushed and flushed but the oil keeps coming back.
I thought id give the old cooler a quick clean and then pressure test to make sure it was actually faulty.
Out of the cooler came some bits of rubber, quite large about 15mm long and 6mm wide .
One side of these rubber bits is smooth , the other side is matt like they have been bonded to something,
I reccon its the head gasket sealing layer delaminating.
I haven't seen a new gasket in the flesh, has anybody out there got one or had a look at one ?
They're a multi-layer steel gasket.
No rubber on them at all.
