oil mixing with coolant doesn`t always means the end of the engine it means flushing the engine and oil pan and get a head job done.

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, I appreciate it! The milky residue on the bottom of the oil filler cap is normally caused by an improperly functioning crankcase breather system (PCV). It’s caused by the breather not being able to move all the moisture out of the crankcase. No biggie!Pat

What is the reason of car drinking 1 litre of coolant in 1 week after changing head gasket ??

[@Goss-garage]

Hi M:There are tons of possibilities. It could be the head gasket job was not done properly, the head gasket is defective, the engine has a cracked engine block or cracked head, there is a problem with the intake manifold, leaking hoses, leaking hose connections, bad heater core and the list goes on. The reason for the new head gasket might shed some light on the cause of the current problem as would the year, make and model of the car plus engine size. Obviously it needs to be
checked by a competent tech to see what’s going on. This will probably require a
coolant dye test and an exhaust gas test.Pat
