This doesn't look good

Did you check your coolant level??? Symptoms of oil/coolant mix usually starts with a nasty thirst of coolant... and the "milky way" in your oil filler tube. Last time I saw that (as seen in your pics) it sure did cost me a bundle! But I wouldn't worry so much in your case since your car is CPO and still under warranty, right...? Good luck and keep us posted!

My coolant has always been right around the MIN mark. It hasn't changed. I will keep a close ey on things and check back here if anything nasty comes up. I really hope I never have to use the warranty except maybe for little things.

I'm pretty sure it's just condensation due to a couple of things: cold damp weather and short drives that don't get the engine warmed up properly. Mine often looks like that in the winter months especially when I don't drive it as much, but I've never seen it in the summer. Go for a long spirited drive and I'll bet it goes away.

It is one of two things, a) excess condensation due to not getting the car up to operating temp because of your short drives, or b) you car has been hanging around some BMW's and it has the clap.

You know...I've got the same smegma in my oil filler tube and I drive my car *every day* at highway speeds for 30 minutes to one hour. Every day - get the car plenty warm - and the same smegma or worse.
Just for the record.

Check this link. It should be alright. I suggest you get it up to temp and run her good and hard.![burnout](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/burnout.gif)
