Hi.
Just wondering if someone could clarify this please. I went to view a 996 the weekend and when taking off the oil cap saw this creamy residue in the pipe. Ive been told its the head gasket that has gone but Ive also seen people saying its possibly due to cold weather or infrequent use. Does anyone know if this is the case or is it definitely a head gasket problem? Also upon start up there was white smoke out the exhausts but that disappeared after a minute or so. Is smoke upon start up regular also. Apologies if im being thick but im not a mechanic.
