That's fúcking amazing, I don't think I have ever seen that on a 370 yet


Is it possible you're burning oil too? Not coolant?

A blown HG means coolant and oil will mix, so although you will typically see "extra" oil that is milky, it's being sucked in, burnt, and blown out too.

I would push for a new long block. More than likely alot of damage was done from the coolant.

Going to talk to the techies today. I am going to request a new long block. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Also I had another thought: Should I be asking for new cats ? Does burning coolant ruin cats?

Sigh.. sux having to deal with this on essentially a brand new car!
