Hello, we have a 98 maxima with a v-6. Wifes car. Aparently the car got hot today, no coolant. I checked the oil and the dipstick has milky brown liquid all the way to the top. My friend says blown head gasket. Is it possible there is a different less expensive problem?

 

You're in the wrong section this is for the seventh generation Maxima

 

Wrong section, but yes, that's a good indicator of a blown head gasket or even a crack in the block. You'll want to get that checked out.

 

Yeah more than likely a blown head gasket, that milky oil is a big indicator!
