Oil in coolant tank!

Hi everyone

I've been a long time reader of the forum and this is my first post.

Just discovered oil in the coolant reservoir tank on my 2004 RS6. Tried local garages but nobody wants to touch it or has the know how. Any recommendations on garages around bedfordshire?

I think it's the primary oil cooler that sits above the alternator.

Any ideas or help is appreciated

Thank you

That doesn’t sound good mate.
I am sure someone on here (more technical than me) will respond.

You’re not too far from MRC in Banbury.

Might be the heat exchanger on the oil filter housing. It’s probably the least worst case.
