« on: October 15, 2010, 09:04:59 PM »

Hi new member hear with a few problems, i have got oil in my water header tank, does that mean iv got a problem with the head gasket?
Also my Jeep is a cherokee sport 2.5 CRD year 2002 does it have a cam belt or a chain?

VM R425DOHC - Belt driven double overhead camshaft. Oil in the header tank does sound like the head gasket.
The 425OHV from the earlier Cherokee XJ is notorious for cracked heads, but your engine has a one piece
head. We've not heard of any problems on here with that engine, but any engine can blow a head gasket.

BTW, you sure you have a 2002? It should say CRD on the back and be the newer shape.
