Hey so I was checking my oil the other day, and when I pulled it out I saw some milkshake looking crap on it and I almost shit my pants. Decided to drain the oil and it wasn't Milky at all :/ But everytime I put the dipstick back in I see more chunder on it. My coolant level does seem to be slowly going down but It also looks like my rad has a tiny leak. The car runs great, but what could cause there to be water in my oil?

Yea the cap is totally clean, it seems to be on the upper part of the dipstick too though. Must just be a moisture thing.

I got the same thing man I freaked out first time I saw it. zero hg issues here aswell.
Heres what I did, go down to your local autoparts store pull your dipstick, bring into the store tell the guys you need some O-rings. Take a knife cut the old o-ring find the diameter you need but a little bit beefier and get 2 and replace the ones on your dipstick for a better seal. If you're like me and check fluids religiously then its just a good peace of mind thing.
