RE: engine oil leak advice

["Shannon Fenton" <sfenton@amazon.com>]

<x-charset iso-8859-1>Yeah Ive flushed the coolant system three or four times. When I first got
the car I blew the headgasket and didnt know it since all it was doing was
leaking oil down the back of the motor. It wasnt burning any or losing
coolant or overheating for that matter. Then VW said the head gasket was
blown, so I had it changed and they said the head was warped. So I had it
planed down and had it all put back together. Ever since it takes about 24
hours of running for the coolant to turn black with oil. Plus it eats
coolant like theres no tomorrow. Funny thing is there is never any coolant
in the oil? Shes a tired motor...211K and still pulling...

Thats really odd to me. Maybe a side of VW' ive yet to see. Dunno. Have
you changed the coolant and there is still oil in it? Somethings fishy
about that.
