    help possible headgasket

    just got my project up and running and ready for its mot tomoro, thought id run it for a while and check all the levels, everything fine no over heating water/ coolant still clean, then i checked my oil filer cap and it has slight mayo around the top? is this a sign of headgasket going?

    i know this is common on other cars and is nothing to worry about, but im new to renault 5's and would rather be safe than sorry

    any help would be great

    regards

    It's probably just condensation. A good run should clear it up.

    Keep an eye on your coolant level, engine temp., etc just to be on the safe side though
