oil mixd with coolant in audi q7 premium v8 2008 model
I just bought Audi Q7 Premium 4.2L V8 Fresh Water FloodI discovered that coolant reservoir is full of oil (milky color and it is tick). I drained engine oil - no sign of water. Flushed engine. Removed coolant reservoir and cleaned until no sign of engine oil in coolant. Went for a drive for about 10 min - coolant reservoir full of oil again and temperature is also high. Please advise what to do

You might have a bad oil cooler. It's kind of a pain to get to, but if it's bad, then it will let oil seep into the coolant plumbing, and within 5-10 minutes you'd have an overheating engine and caramel goo in your coolant reservoir.
