What causes antifreeze to mix with the oil or vice versa and make the car to overheat?
Your engines head gasket is blown. This means a cylinder will lose a little compression because gas can escape into the cooling system. Doing so forces oil into the water, and water into the cylinder when the piston is on the down stroke. This overheats your car puts extra stress on your cooling system because it becomes even more pressurised (you will need to top up the cooling fluid very frequently because of this). Get it fixed as soon as possible before you do more damage to the cooling system or the engine. Your mechanic will know that the oil and water in the car will also need to be flushed once the head gasket is replaced.

Sometomes it is hard to get all of the oil out of the cooling system. However the place that replaced the engine should flush the cooling system until it is clean. Also if your car has an engine oil cooler , it could be the cooler in the radiator and not have been the engine in the first place.
