Why is my radiator got mixture of oil wit water? I did flush the radiator n fill it back wit water and flush it again the next day. The result still the same. I wan to know where is the oil leak in and wat is the negative thing will happen?
 
there might be leakage between gasket or engine oil gallery/water jacket...hence the mix of oil and water in the radiator.

Negative thing? For worse case, water contaminate the engine oil, the oil in the engine will loose its lubricating property...

Check your engine oil see got water or not? It will turn milky if there is water.
Already replied by bro. Danz in other thread....Get it checked by a mechanic. Suspect burnt head gasket if oil leaking into water...
 
I check on my dip stick already not water mark or milky thing on the stick..
 
Better get a mech to check your head gasket. Are you using normal or metal head gasket?
 
should b using normal gasket... haiz lot of problem in the list need to repair n check....
1. engine mounting
2. absorbed
3. all the bushes.
4. power steering rack.
5. radiator oil leak.
6. etc

bro will help u on the budget
1. engine mounting - rm45-55 per pc
2. absorbed - go straight for adjustable hotbits, tein, gab, etc....2nd hand also can. look in mudah.my
3. all the bushes. change the important ones 1st, lower arm (rm150 per pc 555 brand), tie rod end Rm60 per pc, 555 or ori proton.
4. power steering rack. - can recond but not sure how much.
5. radiator oil leak. - get this fixed 1st but make sure u dun bring to your mech where u service your bimmer.

I got my 555 tie rod end at RM60 per pair woh!:driver:
 
Danz, beside adjustable i prefer use back normal setup coz i need a comfort ride. I scare later the car too stiff setup on highway i like taking a boat ride
 
in that case keep your absorbers & spring std, dun use sport springs as it will make your lower arm & tie rod end bushings worn faster.

head gasket kong liao...

most probably head bent also...need to do top engine overhaul...
 
dun worry, able to buy the top overhaul set bout rm150++,
workmanship not much, if head bend just send for skimming. if possible use metal gasket.
 
today i realize my gearbox oil lever very low... is the break oil can use on gearbox
 
no cannot, but your ATF can be used as power steering fluid.
