Went for an Oil Change and they found oil in there mixed with the water water. Would not change oil. What could the cause be?

D12 or Isx?
Other then that I got nothing. -
Cylinder head or gasket.
-
Oil cooler even cups on a D12. Take to your mechanic and get a proper diagnosis.
Steel Dragon Thanks this. -
Could be a head gasket, air compressor, egr cooler, injector cups. He'll need more info
Steel Dragon and Socal Xpress Thank this. -
Sorry to read that. I had a lease truck with a very similar problem. The repair cost was around 5,000$. it was the head gasket. I spotted oil in the coolant. Also the down time seems to be steep. Take it do a dealership.Steel Dragon Thanks this.

Oil in the coolant would be a cooler or radiator problem..different than water in the oil problem.Head gasket is the most common failure.
mhyn Thanks this. -
had that on a 3126 Cat motor and it was the block itself.
Got a brand new short block ( not a rebuild) from Cat for 5 grand.
Used it like that about a year until I saved enough to pay for the swap outright; Cash.
If it was water in the oil, instead of the other way around - you're screwed.Steel Dragon Thanks this. -
Water being where its not supposed to be is always bad news, more than likely a cracked head and water is seeping through the crack into the oil.Steel Dragon Thanks this.
