hum.... check your coolant and see if it has any oil in it... ya should replace the head gasket.... and while its pulled apart replace the timing belt and such.... but if thiers no oil in the coolant then it might just need a tune up...

Most likely anti freeze is getting in the oil.....It might just have a slide crack in the head gasket....it probably will get worse before it gets better. The longer you wait the more prone to damage, antifreeze can do some damange if it keeps getting pumped through the engine in the oil.
