Blown head gasket most likely. There are many reason for this. Worn engine, overheated or warped head. The best bet is to find a used engine if the car is in good shape. A twelve-year old car is not good to be sinking money into.

Most all the answers so far may be right, but with most of these things you would also have water in your oil. Is it motor oil or transmission oil?
The only way oil can get in the water and no water in the oil is a crack in an oil gallery where oil pump pressure is great enough to push oil through and the radiator doesn't pressure up enough to push water through.

i own a repair shop,and it can be caused by a leaking intake manifold gasket,also a bad head gasket,,or a crack in a head or the block,,this is one of those things that you have to tear it down and just see what it is,,you can also have a pressure check done on it,,this will force it out,,but if its on the inside of it,,your not going to see it,,id tear it down and start looking,,when you find it,,believe me ,,you,ll know it,,it should be visible enough to see with the eye ,but this is about all you can do,at this point,,good luck,hope this help,s.merry x-mas.

if you are gettingoilin the water you either have a blown headgasket,or a bad intake gasket.when the car is cold start it open you overflow and see if you smell gas. these cars are famous for blowing both .goodluck

If its a V6 its probably the intake manifold gasket, very common problem

If it is a v6, it might be worth fixing.
If it's a 4 cylinder, don't waste any money on it. Go buy another car.
