Hey all, I've a 1999 grand voyager 2.5td. Yesterday after driving just thought I'd check the water after it had cooled down to find when I undone the cap to have thick black oil comin out at me I've never had or seen this before. PlEaSe help????

 

We (in North America) don't have diesel minivans over here (your post may be the reason why) but if you have a place where oil circulates close to engine coolant (like an oil cooler) start looking there. If not, you may have a cracked block (ouch).

 

OK thanks, I have been reading about the oil cooler that does keep coming up. Thanks
