Slipping? oil?
« Reply #15 on: June 29, 2006, 01:15:49 pm »
I've had oil in my coolant for a while now although I'm not entirely sure it oil.  what happened was my cooling system never truely worked up to par until one day i blew a hose.  I pulled out the entire hose and replaced it, as soon as i did this I got full flow through the system but along with it came what I believe was a clog in the system from that hose deteriorating over time from the inside out.  So all kinds of residue, buildup and even really tiny bits of rubber flowed through the system.  This makes it look like oil but it's not 100% oil.  

Just keep driving it until either it get's worse or you do a comp check.  You may be chasing the wrong problem.
