Morning All - i am new to this site, so please be gentle with me :scary:

I have just noticed coffee colored gunk in my oil filler cap, and assuming that the head gasket has blown.

My car is a 1600 Petrol Altea with sub 40k miles.

Seat have said that they have not heard of a Head Gasket going on this sort of car with this mileage - Any other ideas what it could be ??

Hope one of you Wizard / Gods out there can help !!

coffee coloured liquid that is runny could simply be condensation especially at this time of year to be honest

if it's more a mass explosion of mayonaise i would be worried
