It would crank but not start. We opened the sump and we saw it flooded with about 6 liters of oil [the oil was very dark and water like]. We changed the oil. The mechanic removed the plug, they were wet, he changed them, but nothing changed. He replaced the head gasket and rings but it is still the same. Now he is suspecting the block. The car is still flooding petrol but injectors are okay.

what could be the problem?

Hello,

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if your mechanic replaced the piston rings and the head gasket and you are still getting oil and coolant mingling together, than you either have a cracked engine block, or more likely, a cracked cylinder head. I have included a link below for you to go to.

Please go through this guide and get back to us with the results. We can go from there.
