So i noticed my car is overheating and when I opened up the hood I noticed brown milk type of liquid. Anyone know anything about it. Heard something like a head gasket

I'd be draining the oil immediately to see what that looks like. That is the nastiest thing I've seen in a coolant tank.

Ditto on resharp001... ASAP! Change the Oil and Filter.. Yes a Head Gasket could be a culprit and several other components.
