Hi Brandon:

Yes NOt a good thing. If there is coolant in the oil you either have a head gasket or an intake gasket blown or both. More then likley the intake was leaking for a while it overheated an now it has a blown head gasket.. Is it engine oil in the coolant or is it transmission oil? Brown or red oil? Do NOT DRIVE IT.. your only going to damage it more... At 102K on the odometer you may want to think about repairing the engine cost VS usuing that $ towards something newer. If it were M I would heavly weigh towards looking at something newer... Ath that many moles it will not be long before it needs more high $ repairs.. Good luck :)
