Hey guys I got a dd15 that's leaking from the crankcase breather and about two weeks ago I saw the coolant in the reservoir turned dark close to black...I flushed it myself but put green coolant in there. Now again there is oil in the reservoir, dip stick is clean no overheating. My questions are, is it turning black because of the green coolant? Is the crankcase breather going to be replaced or do I have an oil cooler problem?

you need to make sure you have oil or diesel in reservoir. if its diesel then you have bad o rings on injector cups. if its oil then could be many things
-
It's definitely oil, a mobile guy said I need a oil cooler and crankcase breather now I donno if that's the same as egr cooler because the egr cooler is 5x the price of the oil coller
-
no egr cooler is not oil cooler. the oil cooler element is located inside of oil cooling module. what year is your dd15?
here is that coolerAttached Files:

Have the same problem took it to the shop almost 7000 to fix it

why $7000? do you have printed estimate?

I just had the gaskets changed on my oil cooling module, but it was just an external leak. Nothing was in my coolant.
The crankcase breather was also done for the same reasons. But that's something you could do yourself.77fib77 Thanks this. -

Here's the proceedure to remove and install the oil coolant module.
