Light Fluro Green Oil

[RamR33]

hey guys just a quick question.

I just checked me oil dipstick and oil cap and seems to have a very light fluro type green in it what does that mean? is it a specific oil the his put in it?

i just had it seviced, oil and oilfilter and the oil all i no is 15w-50.

Coolant in the oil , possible headgasket problem

As Michael alluded to, it's the head gasket giving up.

Get it back to your mechanic pronto

yea ill get it to him asap but not smoking not heating up at all or nothing and ive done head gaskects on past cars and was always a milky type colour,ive even tested it with a bit of coolant with oil in a cup and it straight away turns to full milk,,i guess ill find out tommorow but i have notice its making a vibration sound when its cold when first staring as i rev it it and wen the revs come down it makes a knocking type vibration from the head cover and goes away when it warms up with 5/10min dont no if thats got something to do with it.

mmmm dunno if thats coolant as you said it goes milky. and a headgasket wouldnt really make a vibration it would more sound like a exhaust leak. that does look weird tho

[RamR33]

im thinking it might be a type of oil he used cause i had a sandwich plate leak and was fixed and he done a service and yea just checked it out today as havnt seen the oil or checked since the service couple of days ago.Will see tommorow i guess.

Ended up just being the oil that was used as my mechanic showed me the oil martini racing which is a light green oil all fine and good
