I have a 1996 toyota corrolla. It failed to start and I jump started it. After starting the automatic gear lever failed to shift but then used the red button to shift but after moving for three kilometres the radiator water was overheating and the expansion container had white sludge in it and I cant figure out where it came from and what this means. Please help I am desperate
