HELP, mechanic says I need a new engine...

I have a thread a few posts downs "chunky brown sludge in coolant" and in the entire thread we've been discussing what the issue could be for coolant and oil being mixed.

I brought the car to a new "Porsche" shop this morning and without even looking at it guy tells me I need a new engine. Pissed me right off.

I explained my issue and told him it shouldn't need a replacement. Just a proper flush and inspect if the oil cooler is working properly.


Car has 70,000 km on it. Doubt it needs a new engine.
