I have a 1999 Neon. 2 weeks ago while sitting at a light I noted the temp gauge running hot. Once I was able to move, the temp fell back to normal. Upon getting home from work I checked the radiator to find a creamy substance in the radiator. Checked the oil and found it to be low on the stick. I flushed out the radiator and refilled with 50/50 mix. Topped off oil to correct level on stick. After 2 to 3 weeks, my oil level is down 1 quart and I am seeing the creamy substance in the radiaitor again. Car runs great at this time. I suspect it may be a head gasket problem. Could it be anything else???

Someone is draining a quart of oil out of your engine overnight and dumping it into your radiator...

Headgasket is the problem most likely.

I agree with Rice_eater!!! Headgasket is blown. Same deal when mine went.

Yep. dont drive your car with a blown head gasket
because if coolant decides to enter your crank case. you can kiss all your crank bearings goodbye.
