Default Best Thing Ever hopefully ??

have posted a few times about this problem had the dreaded white stuff on the oil cap after a few sleepless nights worrying bout the dam thing someone said it may be condensation. Which all makes sense not used it since friday night sisters 18th lol and on saturday was making a noise as if there was a hole in the exauhst so gave it a miss lol so sat all saturday doin nothin as a thought it was the gearbox on saturday night tried it was perfect again so took it about a 5 min drive then back home all the time the weather was sunny rainy sunny rainy all the time on sunday morning checked the oil cap and seen the white stuff :O a really could have cried so lay off it on sunday only went for a 10 min drive monday morning and i took it for another 5 min drive checked the cap and there it was again white stuff cleaned it again and today (tuesday) took it for another 5 min drive was there again checked the forums they said it might be condensation so took it for a good 20 min motorway drive and checked it again nice and black
any1 think this could have been the problem ?? really hope it was
sorry for the long post lol
