I have an avenger 2.0 5 speed and for the past week I've been getting oil inmy enginecoolant resevoir. The oil doesn't go through the radiator though. I believe it is the headgasket but am not sure. Let me know my options.

 

Headgasket or cracked head

 

I need to get another month out my car then i will fix it right but until then would i be able to add a temporary fix like Bar's Leak or some other type.

 

Bars leak is low pressure radiator leaks it will not hold the higher pressure of the head/headgasket

 

Is there anything i can add to temporarily fix it. It is only driven on the weekends for a total of about 90 miles. What would a round about price be to fix the headgasket and/or head.

 

does it get hot? if not drive it. if its getting oil in the water it should get water in the oil. your oil will look milky

 

No the car doesn't overheat at all. I have to change the oil this weekend so i will check that out.

 

Hold up is there coolant in your oil as in you have a white milky sumbstans on your oil dipstick and/or under your oil cap? Or the oil is in your coolant resivior bottle like in the pic below?

If it is your headgasket (sounds more like it), I would not drive the car or you will destroy your engine!
