Well, the other day i was doing a brief check on my anti-Freeze. Well, i discovered that there were 5 little droplets of oil in the inside of the cap. Question tho is where did this oil come from and is it going to kill my bank account. ty
check your oil and see if there is antifreeze in the oil, sounds like your head gasket is starting to go, thats what it sounds like to me anyway

No there is no anti-freeze in the oil. What about a soft plug? ty
your plugs wouldnt have anything to do with oil in the anti freeze, maybe someone who knows more can be more helpful than me lol
Sometimes the dexcool antifreeze will get old and gell up a little bit lloking kinda like oil. Have you had the car since new? If not someone else could have put a stop leak in the cooling system and that also may resemble oil. Just trying to think positive here.

Well, ive had the car for 4 years now. Ill amite that the anti-freeze is old. ill try a flush or a just a drain and then add 50/50 dexcool. Car only has 145,000 on it but during the summer i put on 8,000 miles in 2 months. Hehe. And about the stop leak. don't think so. don't see the normal silver residue left behind. Thank you for all the information.
maybe the coolant leaked on the engine, And some motor oil mixed with the coolant.
