    Gas/Water in Oil?

    Yeah I kinda live in two places in WI atm. Both south and middle. It was cold as hell in both for a little bit there! When I bought the car around 45k miles it would run around 192F constantly and that's where it runs again. I read up that it's normal operating temperature for the car and the...

    Gas/Water in Oil?

    Found out the issue. Thermostat was bad. It wasn't allowing my car to reach operating temperature so any condensation couldn't get burned off and the gas in oil can be explained from the car running extra rich to compensate for running cold. The car would rarely reach 180F before, now it runs a...

    Gas/Water in Oil?

    Coolant level is fine. Maybe .25-.5 inches lower in the reservoir than when I flushed it this summer. And I'm happy to hear someone else has experienced this issue. I guess I'll just keep driving and monitoring it. Thanks for the replies!

    Coolant Issue???

    I've had the car for about a year now, and it started mid-winter after a car wash. I believe it was December when we had a day of mid-40's temperature I decided to go to the car wash. Other than before that it maintained about 180ish throughout the summer into winter until then.

    Coolant Issue???

    Hey guys! I have a 2009 G5 GT 2.2l 5-speed, and just recently I've been having issue with my car's cooling system. The temperatures when driving will stay around 172-178 when they used to be around 180ish, and when I come to a dead stop and sit for a while they will go up to 220, fans will...
