How can you tell if there is water in the oil? How can you fix it?

Check the oil. If coolant is mixed, chances are it will be a creamy brown color. Also, check under the filler cap.

If you have coolant mixing, let me know.

Yes it is creamy looking under the filler cap, but the oil is not creamy looking. What can I do to prevent anything from going bad?
