Hello, so I was doing a flush to my cooling system and the worst case scenario happened, oil in my coolant, which most likely means blown HG but what’s strange is I don’t over heat, I don’t have white smoke out the exhaust, and my oil dipstick shows perfectly clean oil. At first I thought the substance in my coolant was just radiator sludge but after looking at the bottom of the bowl I emptied it in I could see small amounts of oil beading up at the bottom and it also smelled like exhaust fumes. So I know it’s most likely the head gasket, but I’ve had a buddy tell me that it could potentially be the turbo is bad and it’s allowing oil to mix with the coolant? I don’t know how that would even happen since they shouldn’t even have any gasket or seal to separate the 2 fluids but I wanted to get another opinion. Any ideas? Thank you
