Hi all

Was servicing the van the other day when i noticed the coolant was low and there was a milky residue on the oil cap!!

My immediate thoughts where that i have either a crack in the head or a corroded water way leaking in to the oil. There's no overheating, smoke or oil in the rad or anything.

Anyhow on quick inspection i saw that the rad cap was leaking coolant so that should be the reason for the coolant loss. I also noticed that the PCV valve was blocked too and the plunger was sludged up inside. So i cleaned this and put it back on hoping that the cam cover could not breathe the vapours away helping the condensation form.

Anyone else had a similar problem, interested to hear... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
