These links are as old as dirt and some of the parts/companies mentioned are no longer made or in business, BUT this might help you with your problems.

a dsm will do you good as long as you do the matinence. the only thing to worry about with colant and oil is the head gasket. other then that i would just replace all the coolant lines in the engine bay. they tend to all go bad .

Older dsms are def stronger but a thing to watch for in most all of them is the tranny. after you hit the 11 sec mark bye bye. Replace the coolant lines and check for shaft play in the turbo. Keeping coolant and fluids cold always helps;D
