Lowered car. Hit something on freeway didn't pull over to inspect for damage. Parked car. Found coolant leaked out. Refilled, didn't burp system. Cut to - Blown headgasket.

Sounds like panic attack troubleshooting; thinking the worst when it's something simple.

I'd try to burp the coolant simple according to procedure before saying something is broken.

Karma happens when you're only willing to pay someone $50 to cut your springs.

Normally if your oil looks like a milk shake that means a blown head gasket

Story is changing again.

Now, is it oil in the coolant system or water in the oil system?

True. Did you read everything OP has written so far. Each time he is questioned he comes back with more information saying they're wrong and he is right as though the forum replies are condescending because he knows what a blown headgasket symptoms are.

Could be possible oil filter housing/oil cooler gasket failure if oil and water are mixing..Also the issue from the impact on the freeway sounds like a total seperate issue just coincidence and did not cause the oil and water to mix but rather breached the system thus causing his air pocket/over heating ..In the end only he knows wtf happened cause this is what I can make of his stories lol

2 people you never lie to.. Your Doctor, and your Mechanic.. Lying to either ends up just costing you more money.
