hello, i went into jiffy lube today and got a simple oil change. they told me that there was milky, foamy fluid on my dipstick and this usually means a blown head gasket. however i researched on the internet and i found that rx8's do not have head gaskets because of the rotary engine. it also said that the milky fluid is normal in cold temperatures. is this true?

please only answer if you know what your talking about.
 
I am not sure about the milky fluid, but rotary motors definitely do not have a head gasket. They have apex seals. And as far as i could tell you the milky fluid would be water in the oil.
