I found a small amount of oil in coolan reservoir.
I went to check the fluid levels and when i did that, i found a couple drops of oil floating on top of the coolant. I reached in with a straw to see if i could fish it out of there, it worked and i confirmed that it was indeed oil.
The coolant is otherwise clear and clean, this oil was floating on top and was not emulsified with the coolant. I checked every other fluids and they were good.
The little oil that i found was more like a sludge consistency and much darker than the oil from the sump when i checked it with the dipstick.
The car runs good, it doesn't have the typical head gasket sympthoms, and it also doesn't have any outstanding sympthoms. As this was a really small ammount i don't have a clue about what could cause it and how severe it is. I can't seem to find anything similar to my case as i can only see 100x times worse sympthoms when it is about head gasket problems or else.
Also, i am a little affraid of using it, fearing that it would worsen the situation.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated, thanks!
