My car has oil leak from under the engine. It looks like fresh oil dripping from the engine block. Also, the coolant has oil mixed. I have opened the oil lid and it has no sign of white gunk.

Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

The first thing we need to do is check for a bad head gasket. The reason I suggest this is due to the coolant having oil in it.

Follow this link and let me know what you find.
