rotary_it_up

I had my oil changed recently at the dealership. The next day after driving about 150 miles, I checked the oil level and found a milky white substance on my dipstick.

From what I have read, it sounds like there is water in my oil.

Is this characteristic of the rotary??

Has anyone seen this issue before??

I want to read some opinions from the experts before I call my dealer's service department.

Thanks

oh...I thought you had an STD by reading the title, glad its just your car.

I'd have the oil changed and see if it clears up.

This is a common issue and not to worry. It has been discussed many times before. There a lot of threads about. Happing searching!

Mine has had this since I bought it (had 550 miles on it). It is there every time I check the oil, even after a 150 mile trip. I just went over 2,000 miles so guess it is okay like everyone is saying.

I am at 2000 and it is clear as somewhat dirty oil can be, as in no milky stuff in mine. I have not had my first change yet.

NK, this thread title is downright pornographic. I hestitated to click for fear you had posted pictures...

the search button is your freind

those were found just using "foam oil" as my search words. im sure you could find more if you used milk or milky and dipstick.

been there, had that... it will go away once summer hits and there no longer is a 200+ degree temp difference between the oil operating temp and cold start temp.

I had so much milky stuff in my dipstick hole (......oh wait.....that still sounds pornographic :D) that even after an oil change I could not even check the oil level. I kept putting the stick in the hole, pulling it out, and having to wipe it off over and over (damn....that sounds nasty too) to get a correct oil level reading.

That stuff was really in there. Makes me wonder if there was THAT much of it in the dipstick hole....how much was/is in the other parts of the engine?

Today, my girlfriend suggested that she give my dipstick a thorough rubdown before sticking it back in the hole. I figured what the hell....it's worth a shot.

I've got to tell you guys....DO NOT TRY THIS!!!

Now there is more milky white stuff than ever!!!

Where does it come from?

What does it consist of?

Do you get any even when it's been resting, settling, not doing anything for a while?

Kas

If its keeping the same rude topic, then thats just sick!
