Oil in the coolant res ;{

[Diverwes]

Was trying to find out why my wife's car had that slit sweet smell when she would get home. So after noticing the coolant res was a little low I pulled dipstick to check and found oil on the plastic stick.
So I took a paper shop towel rolled it and stuck it in the res. Low and behold oil floating in res. Not good I suspect. Thinking head gasket. Anyone else experience this?

Yes, that's a classic sign of a head gasket failure. The sweet smell is coolant burning and oil in the coolant is a major red flag. Get it to the dealer immediately; your 2022 should still be under the full warranty.
