Default Head gasket or any other possible issues?

Can anyone help me?

I have 2014 cx5 2.2 skyactive

i have oil changed every 5000 miles and filters changed.
The guy who changed my oil phoned me to say he did not want to change the oil as he thought we had an issue . He does not have the equipment to run checks .

i arrived and when he started the car there was bubbling in the coolant expansion tank .

the car runs fine no lack of power
no white smoke
no milky oil
no loss of coolant .

other than head gasket could it be something else ?

what should I do first .

A radiator pressure test
A Coolant chemical test
Those results may need to be followed up by more tests but those 2 first

Ditto. They'll be the best to reveal anything wrong.
