    coolant loss/ oil beading

    Hope some one can help this D2 seems to love throughing up problems it;s a TD5 Iam lossing coolant not all but about 3 quarters then stops. Now there is no water in the oil or oil in the water it's not coming out the over flow if Ifill the expanison tank while the motor is running no bubbles. All cylenders show normal when tested by dianostic gear that land rover use had an injector replaced about a week ago think there may be a bit of diesel in oil from when injector was changed as the oil seems to bead on dip stick but can't smell diesel in oil been rinning liqui moly mos2 anti friction treatment in oil. Oil seems to be a bit thin but stil seems to be slippery enough for 4000k oil am going to change oil and see if it is from injector change over.

    Man that is one hard thread to read not sure what the question was
    Why was the injector changed? they don't go wrong that often.

    I would change the oil and give it a run and monitor it to see if you have a rising oil level.
    It could be injector seals /washers or a cracked head
    I find that my TD5 will settle at its own coolant level but if its done 170-200 thousand and has plastic head dowels it could be due for a head gasket if it hasn't had it done.
