foam in oil S80

posted by  someone claiming to be 8177 on  Sat Aug 16 05:24 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Is it a tan-ish color on the dipstick?? If so that is probably more related to short distance driving and the accumulation of moisture in the oil. The short distance driving doesn't allow enough time for the oil to heat up and "drive off" the water - thus it accumulates. A good brisk drive on the interstate with help this prob.

best of luck
