RX8 sludgy oil

[tjb]

I checked the oil on my girlfriends RX8 yesterday and it looks like there is a water leak into the oil (creamy sludge on the dipstick). Only six months old and 3000 miles. It will be going back to the dealers next week but I just wondered if this is a known problem?

Its known but not a problem.

Caused by condensation with the cold weather.

All of us owners had it last winter, came back this winter, oil analasys shows no unduly hgh water in the oil problem.

Mazda have fobbed us off about it saying its down to too short a run not getting hot enough to evaporate the condensation, but it doesnt seem to be/cause a problem.
