    yo bitches did you not read. OP said that the coolant leak was found. it was a leaking hose.... which means he no longer has to fill his cooling system back up.

    Still dont know what that milky shit was. I'll post pics tomorrow.
    For those of you dolos that think its a blown HG the truth is its most likely not. OP never stated the car ran poorly or overheated. He just has milky substance on his dipstick.

      i doubt it's the hose, because he would have seen pools of coolant under his car. that would have tipped him off sooner.

      it's the head gasket.

        The car does over heat but thats because I was unaware of the leaks. I had a pressure test done and the leaks were fixed, but I think he tightened the hose down too tight which caused the hose to rip (I think they're old). Other than that the car runs fine.

        Here are the images of the milky stuff I found on my dip stick. They were from a couple months ago.




        And here's a video of where the leak is coming from. I was on my way home from school and my car over heated. I caught every red light on the way home...


        I'm not actually sure what that smoke is that coming out. That's the first time it's done that. There's evidence that coolant comes out of there because there are marks of collant spewing out from that direction on the intake and radiator, etc.

        I ordered a new hose and I'll install it tomorrow.

          The car has over heated twice in the past few months. I haven't checked if that milky stuff is still there. The car runs great, I just have problems with my coolant.
