Question

Oil in water in 1.3 diesel corsa but no water in oil or any loss of power and no smoke any suggestions?

Answer 1

not enough info! is the oil overfull on the dipstick?? could be just condensation from heating & cooling cycles

Answer 2

The obvious would be a head gasket failure. Possibly the car has an oil cooler built in to the water coolant system. If the oil cooler has failed, that would allow water/oil mix.  

Answer 3

if it has a oil cooler fitted check that they let oil in the water but doesent affect the running

Answer 4

Could be head gasket does it overheat and loose water if it does its probably head gasket.  

Answer 5

a lot of times you can have a small crack in the head casket between the oil and water jacket.  Depending on where its at you can get oil in your radiator.  Sometimes its only small enough that it does not effect the performance of the vehicle but over time it will get worse.  Same if it was the opposite way. You can get water in the oil depends on where the crack is on the head gasket.  Either way you will half to end up changing the head gasket sooner or later.  Hope this helps.

Answer 6

sounds like head gasket or problems with cylinder head ,sounds expensive

good luck h
