My oil has been mixing into my coolant. I am not sure why or how much on average it cost to get fixed.

Hello,

Does your radiator have an engine oil cooler? I think it does and if so it is leaking and the radiator needs to be replaced. Here is a guide that will show you what you are in for when doing the job:

Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
