Re: oil in coolant reservoir
You should know this, you're a veteran around here. Is someone else posting under your account?
Well just in case it is you, usually that means that you have blown a headgasket. Did your car overheat recently?

Re: oil in coolant reservoir
if you have oil in our coolant you have one of 2 things going on either a blown head gasket, or a cracked block/head. I guess there is one other option someone put oil into the coolant reservoir

Re: oil in coolant reservoir
there are only a few places coolant gets close to oil. and they are alll around the headgasket.
dry/wet compression test and a cooling system pressure test are in line for you
