coolant can show up in the oil by 3 paths.

1 is the coolant/oil heat exchanger which this car wont have as its US specced. The Euro spec ones had it with tow package.

2 - the headgasket sealing properties have breached due to some past event.

3 - someone accidently poured coolant into the oil fill hole.

First order would be to test cooling system integrity with a pressure tester.
