Corsa Deisel Oil in Water

Discussion in 'Corsa' started by alan.blackburn4, Jul 29, 2004.

  1. Hello all,
    I have a 2001 Corsa (new shape) with the 1.7 Turbo Diesel engine fitted
    which appears to be getting oil in the cooling system.
    The car runs well and doesn't use any oil or water but develops a black line
    of oily sludge above the water line in the expansion tank after a few days
    running.
    I've checked the oil cooler for leakage (pressure tested) and refitted with
    new seals but it's not the cause, has anyone any suggestions or come across
    this problem before?

  2. Is the car out of warranty? It had 3 years/60,000 mile warranty.
