jdm32r Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Just want to double check if it's spitting coolant out exhaust does that mean if blown a turbo gasket? Or am I wrong?

Ben C34 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 You are wrong. There is no gasket in a turbo sealing the water. It runs through the casting. Your Head gasket is the most likely cause.

89CAL Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Is it only on cold start? Sometimes moisture builds up in the exhaust overnight and when you start it you'll get some spots of water out the exhaust. Mine does this. But otherwise yes most likely head gasket.

Guilt-Toy Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 has the engine had coolant running through it all its life? it could be a corroded head from the water jacket into the exhaust port... im thinking head issue.

jdm32r Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 I thought it would blow white smoke if it was the head gasket it doesn't blow any white smoke?

89CAL Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Ive got a VS commy ute I take to work with a stuffed head gasket. No signs that this is the case apart from the thing using coolant. I put up with it cause I only drive it out to work and back every second week. Ill fix it one day lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/441907-rb25det-spitting-coolant-out-exhaust/#findComment-7258871 Share on other sites More sharing options...
