    And good luck, any coolant oil mix is a real bad sign, and big money fix, if it"s my first thought, see above.

    Drop the oil pan and pressurize the cooling system overnight, you may find a bad liner or poor sealing.

    You say you had the oil/coolant tested and it came back good.
    What do you mean by that?
    Do you mean oil cooler perhaps?
