yeah a bit but its gradually been getting worse.
I THINK I HAVE A RESULT!!!
Ive been reading some previous posts about the same problem so took it upon myself to have another fault finding bash!. This time i disconnected the turbo from the coolant system and ran her up. Took her for a short drive to which i previously would have sludge back in the header. this time NOTHING i think my turbo is fooked
and i dont know what to express first!!!!

This is alot mate i reckon ive drained and flushud about 5 or 6 times now and must of collected about 1/4 litre in a bucket from just what was forming as a skin in the header. I spoke to someone who suggested it might be a cracked liner but i still cant understand why its only mixing one way.
Ive also done a block test thismorning and thats ok too.
