Oil Cap Creamy Looking Stuff?

[HiccaBurp]

Thank you all for the responses. I believe it is the short trips. My wife drives the kids to school, dance, sports, etc.. regularly.

There is a small water pump leak which i'm about to change out this week. The coolant maybe lost an inch over the past couple of months.

Here is the last UOA I did.. I don't think a coolant leak in the engine is the problem

The OP's vehicle has a yeast infection...

Nice UOA! Sheared to a 20 grade, but wear #'s are great.
At least you now know that there is no head gasket issue.

Honestly, it might of been a 20 weight oil to start with. The Oil that was in it was from the dealership, I thought he said 5w30, I would bet it's a 5w20 that was in there.

Looks like the short trips and long filler neck is the culprit. I'll see what the next UOA looks like

I sprayed out a used oil drip pan yesterday and got the same creamy goup so definitely condensation (even though everyone already knows it).
