Possible Headgasket? S90-V90

Nope no white smoke at all. Only at startup on cold days which is normal along with every other car on the road that I see. In the summer there is nothing..

I had a car with a blown headgasket before (Pontiac) and that thing smoked like crazy, coolant in the oil, oil in the coolant, it was all over..

This is really wierd, I think my next oil change I will pour all of the oil in a glass container and let it settle to see how much water there "really is"...

This enging is not known for this problem so I hope its all good, but after a long trip like that I don't think there should be anything in the oil after it sits for an hour..
