How long is that once a week drive? Does it go away after a healthy Italian tune up?

Maybe 30 miles or so. Half of that time the car is coming up to operating temperature, then the other 15 miles I push the car a little harder to 4-5k rpm on a few take offs from a stop but nothing crazy. I don't open the oil cap often enough to monitor this - just happened to be in there today and noticed the build up.

Id guess it's from condensation, but I'm no expert.

Usually thats moisture. Drive for a bit and see if its the same color.

Thank you for the timely replies. Driving the car more often is the best fix one could ever ask for

not necessarily more often, but make sure to try to get the engine to full(or almost) operating temp whenever you drive it to burn off any shit in the engine/oil

Given your location in the Midwest, this is probably the emulsion of oil and condensed water that occurs in cold temperatures in the winter, sometimes affectionately referred to as "peanut butter." Nothing to be too concerned about if just under the oil cap.

Got a Sparco Adv Pro 2000 from a member here! Now to figure out how this will go on and what mounts can I use. Anyone ever used quick fit harness with these seats?

Do you let the dog just be on top of the seat or do you put a mat or something?

It was someone elses LOL. Just took a pic while walking. I usually let my dog stay in the back. The sensatec is DURABLE ASFK. But my dog scratched up that plastic panel under the AC vents in the rear.

Just randomly checked the mileage today while I was giving her a clean.

Me, whenever I'm using the search button and some top lad in the backseat getting chauffeured around London

Another shot of my car at a look-off along the Cabot Trail, NS. It was a gorgeous day for a drive.
