Possible turbo leak
I have a 2002 s60 turbo awd. It has water in the oil. A new head gasket, and water pump installed 3 months ago, new radiator 2 weeks ago. What other causes can ther be......I'm all out of ideas
If I had to put money on it, I would say it is probably a poor seal with the new head gasket. Was the head re-machined to ensure a flat mounting surface? Were new stretch bolts used? Proper torque sequence?
If you're positive the head gasket is not to blame, the oil cooler is another possible source. I believe it is an oil to water style heat exchanger.

The head gasket was replaced professionally at a local garage. They seem to think it's something with the turbo. It looks like there are cooling and oil lines running to it, but I don't know if there is any way for them to leak into each other. I don't know if they had the head machined. I just don't know if they did a poor job on the last repair. or if it's something new.....thanks for your reply.

Based on a quick google image search, it appears to be bolted to the backside of the oil pan. Looks like a very simple replacement.
