Omega General Help / smell inside car when screen blower on like oil/ta

« on: 15 January 2010, 14:55:44 »

when i turn the front screen blower on when the car has warmed up i can smell oil/tar , i then noticed under where i park the car a small patch of water/oil that had a beige colour . when i checked the oil dip stick i looks ok as well as the coolant level.on checking the oil cap there is what looks like beige sludge.the car appears to drive ok although i have not driven far as i only bought it in november .
please advise me on what to do and probable cost if a good garage looks at it
thanks mike

Omega General Help / smell in car like oil/tar

i have a oily smell inside the car, v6 2.5 omega , on investigation i have what looks like a creamy sludge under the oil cap, does this mean my head gasket has blown although the oil on the dip stick looks good and the coolant is stiil high, or is there another reason
