Default please help... a4 b6 problems

A week ago i was driving my a4 b6 1.8t and the coolant warning came on so i stopped on the side of the road...opened bonnet n saw a mixture of oil and water coming out of the bottom of the water bottle. I towed it home and was advised that the oil cooler packed up. The mac replaced it n drove it bt it lost power and continously lost water from somewhere. The mac did a minor service and cam belt change jus to be sure but now that he set the timing and started it... it has a very sluggish start after 2 or 3 attempts and a loud backfire and has very less power. And is still losing water...very quickly... someone please please assist..

Wrong section this is Q5 not A4, try here:

PS: You probably have a problem with the head gasket - mixture of oil and water
