Are you sure its oil in the water and not simply dirty radiator water?
If you are getting oil in the water it does point to a head gasket issue.

hi there, before condeming head gasket, have the turbocharger checked. i am not sure but it could be water cooled. if there is a problem the oil could mix there. hope this helps
