Please bear with me as I am a non technical 996 C4 (1998) owner.
Before buying a 996 i had heard of the "water mixing with oil" potential problem.
Now, whilst checking my oil level yesterday i also opened the oil filler cap and had a look in. I did notice 2 or 3 droplets of water just inside the filler nozzle. I also checked the dipstick but there was no evidence of the same. The car has been driven very little over the last 4 weeks as i have been away and it still only does around 10 miles a day at the minute.
Should I be worried, should i have it checked or is this normal - especially given the sudden change in temps this last week or so. I know there are plenty of technical minded people amongst you so any advice would be appreciated.
If this is a dumb question, then I apologise.
