Engine oil in the radiator, very slow leak internally from oil gallery somewhere, has anyone taken the aluminium cover off the left hand side of the block that has the oil filter and oil pressure switch in it to see if there is a corrosion or gasket failure there, only other possibility is head gasket i guess? Thanks Jimmy.

Is the Timing BELT METAL 2003 PREGIO
I believe the Pregio has a timing chain and not a belt. My Pregio has done 360,000k and never needed any attention If you are worried about a noisey motor in the Kia Pregio it could be just the tappets needing adjusted under the recover cover ☺️ Hope that helps Cheers G

How much oil does 2.7lt diesel pregio take
How much oil does the kia pregio take and what type
I have a 2004 Kia Pregio - was told today it needs a head gasket - is this worth doing??
How many kms has it done?. Is it using oil?. If it still has a bit of life left in the engine and it will stop the engine leaking and give you a bit more power then yes.
It’s only done 189000 - there is no oil in water, just been over heating- changed water hoses and put new oil and coolant in… temp gauge goes to half way but on way home it went to high- I stopped, filled it up with water and drive it home????
Can anybody recommend a workshop manual either free or purchase. Reasonable quality reproduction

My 2003 march pregio , has oil in Radiator took it garage they flushed it out a bit! What CAN BE CAUSE OF THIS?. is not over heating ? Oil was in overflow thats been cleaned out and coolant put in. Is There a Oil Cooler somewhere? Was suggested maybe actually at bottom of radiator?. 5 garages have no idea. Central Coast Any knowledgable mechanics anywhere Please. Its my home my van, so must run. 400,000 klms Thank you
This sounds strange I know they do have a reputation of the heater cores failing(this is what makes your heater work with the radiator) Not sure that would cause oil in the radiator though. Sounds like a possible gasket leaking somewhere. Id keep an eye on the radiator to see if it returns. Good luck
Radiator heater does not work. Im checking it daily if I drive anywhere. Thanks for reply
Oil cooler seals or head gasket, what was the fix?
Not fixed as yet . As mechanic said REPLACE ENGINE! other said possibly head gasket. Possibly crankcase crack! Possibly engine oil cooler. So maybe it's time to pass the van on to someone who can is knowledgeable and do it. Great traveller van loves cruising motorways. Never overheated. New Alternator and battery just been replaced. To get her going again. Fitted out comfortably. Queen size splits in half. ( Lorry mattress was new. ) fridge, water etc.
Jasper where is oul cooler please
