Yeah the oil cooler is in a bad spot on the right hand drive cars. Sits very near he cat so cooks with the heat. The poms were developing a fix for it.

Keep your eye on the coolant reservoir, guys.......this looks like it could become a bit of a problem.

Milkshake.

So oil has entered the cooling system, usually caused by a cracked head/gasket or an oil cooler failure.

Do not drive, Ford to tow to dealer, its a fair old repair job to, just getting the gunk out of the radiator alone is a massive task, let alone finding the actual failure point.

Interestingly the TSB says 'BUILT ON OR BEFORE 26-JUL-2016.' Does that mean that they made some sort of change for builds after that?

This is the third thread in as many days. These are going off left right and centre. I think it will be useful for someone to create a thread for this and record who's have failed and when the car was blended. This is so people can get an idea of how long it takes before they get cooked and if it's affected cars made in a certain period.
