The car is not over heating or loosing water.
It is however using a lot of oil currently. More so than normal. This maybe because the rocker cover gasket has a slight leak.

Any how When driving there is a pinking noise low down and my header tank is full of thick slime.
Is the Headgasket letting Air??


Cheers all

When the car is running try and squeeze a largish water hose. If its hard to squeeze then it could be likely.

The header bottle i believe is full of oil and water mix.
Disgusting and thick slimy sh*t
Must be a water jacket letting oil in.
I think its gonna be the Headgasket eventually.
