Hi All,
Last Weekend I pulled the dipstick on my 760 to check the oil and to my horror I found the top of my dipstick had droplets of water on it The actual oil level on the dip stick was not contaminated with water etc, I also pulled the Oil filler as well only to find that this contained a very light milky substance it was I stress very very minimal.
Does this mean any of the following?

A): Just general condensation as we have been experiencing a very warm summer here on the west coast of Australia.
B): An internal water leak of some sort ie- Head Gasket?

The car is a PRV6 for a start.

Thanks in advance.
