    Hi lads

    Maybe somebody could put some light on an issue im having

    The oil cooler on my Transit went 2 weeks ago resulting in oil getting in to the water system

    I got the cooler replaced with a new genuine Ford part and it was perfect for 4 days and then it seemed to fail again

    My mechanic says that the engine needs to be replaced now due to this and thinks the block is cracked, when i dip the oil there is no "mayo" sludge like when a head gasket goes but the oil level is low as it has got in to the water again

    Does anybody have any ideas on this?
