Hoping someone can give me some good news here. Whilst checkin my coolant levels i took off the oil cap only to discover a sort of white colour residue not a loy just a small amount around the lip. What does this mean? Is it goin to blow up, I hope not as I\'m just gettin used to driving it. Everything seems fine it appears to runnin perfectly. The only problem I had was I flooded last week like a fool.Please help......Very worried:( :(
that sounds fairly normal, water vapour condenses in the filler neck and makes the white residue. Best keep an eye on water levels to be safe though
is it a common problem for FD to get flooded???i just got my car from japan and it started everytime and never flooded(finger cross)i even start it up and switch off and starrt it up a few times again...

Jay, its a time of year thing! When the weather gets colder, the condensation gets more. It builds up on the oil filler cap.
Best bet is to take the car for a serious blatt and see what its like after that. I am sure that you will find that it has cleared a fiar amount.
