Oil foam?

[madsb]

Just noticed this:




What does it mean? Sorry couldn't find anything quite similar when I searched, though I'm sure it's there.

edit: Checked it after a 10 min drive around the city

It's cold, you probably drive short distances so it's no surprise that you have some mayo there.

Nothing to worry about in 99.9% of cases (the other 0.1% you got foam on dip stick and it will use massive amounts of coolant and oil - but "oil" could also get more.

Give her a good run and it'll burn off

Looks a little more than normal to me.

I agree with tweed, Check your dipstick to make sure there isn't any on it, Give it a good run and check again

Looks a little more than normal to me. 

Mine was looking exactly the same when I drove it for 2 months only extreme short distances.

Clean it off and give it a good run, if it comes back your looking at head gasket or oil cooler.

If you only use it for short runs, buy a push bike 

Are you loosing coolant?
