    It's the transmission fluid leaking from the transmission cooler inside the radiator. Pressure is not the only thing that will cause a leak. Heat (thermal expansion) is mostly the cause. Swap a new radiator and all should be fine.

    Your Hyundai 1.8 didn't have the dreaded piston slap, I rebuilt one of them engines last year with 130,000 miles and Hyundai wouldn't replace the engine because the lady who owned it was the 4th owner had she been the 1st or 2nd owner they would've replaced it so I had the cylinders bored .020 and new rings bearings and the head was redone before the car came to me as another mechanic thought it was a lifter noise and put it back together but it still had the piston tick in the engine!!!!!

      @garymcauley7630 I'd do both at the same time. Arcing from the coil insulation can damage the spark plug and visa versa. The fact that the energy is finding a path through the coil insulation could mean that the spark plug contact has high resistance.

    You need to run that oil for at least two standard intervals, e.g., 5000 miles, for best effect ( per Valvoline). I'd also recommend you run a PEA fuel system cleaner, e.g., Chevron Techron Concentrate Plus at each of those oil changes.

    I still haven’t seen anything from anyone that’s conclusive on this oil. Making vague comments like it’s cleaning and there are still only a few deposits left don’t tell us anything. The last oil could have done that cleaning. Heck it could have cleaner before. Sadly even a before and after aren’t going to do much good. Going 5k on oil. Pulling the cover and saying look how bad it looks then running new oil for 1 k will always net you something cleaner. That first 1 k is when it’s at its best. It’s like taking a before and after pic of a hair cut. Look it was messy and a week later it looks better than it did when I waited 4 weeks to cut it. Still waiting for a decent lab test. Same deposits same engines. Running this and another top brand oil and see what’s left after 3k

    My Forester is a 2.0 DOHC FB20 but does not have a radiator attached for CVT, instead it has a separeted oil cooler (like a small rounded pan with four outlets, 2 for colant and 2 for transmission oil) it is at the right side of the engine bay. Besides doing a vacuum testing on that (which I'm doing today) I´d already done the other two suggestion you made (thanks for that BTW) and still getting the water mixing with the CVT oil. Later I will let you guys know the result about the vacuum test of the oil cooler pan component (my last hope). But before that I would like to let you know that I did a little bit different about the o-rings. Instead of completely remove the engine I found that removing the front wheel train from below was actually an easy way to access and remove the engine bottom panel to replace the o-rings.

    I got my start with Craftsman. When I went to work at the dealer I had access to the tool trucks. I had a mix of Snap-on, Mac, Matco and Craftsman. Some tools I preferred Snap-on. Some I preferred Mac and Matco. I put together a secondary set of tools for mobile mechanic and racetrack usage. It consists of Craftsman, Husky, Stanley, Duralast and other auto parts store tools. I turned out the same level of work regardless of the tool manufacturer. That secondary set has become my main set of tools. I don't work in the industry anymore so I don't have access to the tool trucks. Buy what you can afford to get started. As experience is gained, one will figure out where and when tool truck tools are needed or when mid tier will do the job.
