Looks like a bit (a couple of table spoons maybe) of oil in the coolant overflow.

Is this a sign of the turbo going bad?

Don't see any signs of coolant in the oil.

How much damage will this do to the coolant system?

Any advice? This is a car my nephew recently picked up.

One of the things we neglected to check on a quick buy.

Not much invested fortunatley.

1987 740 Turbo

thanks in advance for any advice.
