OVERHEATING ON EJ1!!!
OK, before anything, i would like to say that I have searched and nothing that I have looked at seems to be helping. ALSO the car is STOCK!!!!
THE SYMPTOMS: CAR only overheats when i am on the freeway. If I am driving on the street or just sitting there it is cool but once i hit the freeway it overheats.
WHAT I DONE SO FAR: I have changed the water pump, thermostat, radiator, hoses,and burped/bled the cooling system. I have also taken it to a mechanic and he says that everything is fine. The only thing that i can think of is the head gasket
but the mechanic said he did the compression test and everything is fine.
MY QUESTION: If the head gasket is messed up would I see a the oil milky?
OR does that only happen when the head gasket is
messed up by the cylinders? AND can the head gasket be making
my car overheat without losing compression / oil and coolant
not mixing together?
THANKS.................
