    Wow, great video for sure, I have developed oil leaks with my oil cooler and unfortunately, a slow coolant leak that I can’t seem to find, and brown discoloration a little bit at the bottom of the coolant over flow tank. I hope I can figure this out. I think I’ll do a leak down test on the coolant system. Hopefully I’ll get an answer.🙏🏻✝️

    Thanks, I have a Pacifica with the failing plastic oil cooler. My question is, how do I know the extent of damage. The engine is at 95K ...and I believe should have many more miles. But shop is saying to replace engine, just from the block test.

    I found that coolant was mixed with oil in my Jetta 1.6TDI, seems like a faulty oil cooler. How can i clean the coolant system from the oil (which become like a grease after it has mixed with the oil).

    I have a cayenne S 2016(twin turbo v6) have coolant smell, slow loss of coolant, oil in coolant but no coolant in oil. This has been going on for the past 3 months, also the oil temperature is higher than normal but not overheating, the coolant is at a perfect 200 degrees and have a oil leak. car runs perfect, no white smoke. 80k miles. Is it more likely the oil cooler or something worse like a head gasket or block?
