Milky oil in water but car runs fine
Milky water consistancy, oil in coolant water but car runs fine. It has had this before and it was the Oil Cooler. This was changed about 4 years ago, is it likley to be tha same problem? Had several jobs done at this garage all of which have had further problems. garage no closed down !! The oil in the engine sump is fine, and there seems no significant loss in level. The car runs well through the whole rev range, no steam from exhaust. What do you think people.

This is classic case failed head gasket. You changed your oil 4 years ago?
There is more to this story I think. Maybe you changed the transmission oil 4 years ago and and now you have water in the trans? Not good. You have trans oil in the radiator? Not good. You have engine oil in the radiator? Not good. You have water in the engine? Not good. You have engine and trans oil in the radiator? Doubble not good.
You should have a reputable shop take a look at your 22 year old car to see if it is salvagable.
