Just got my 2006 Libby on Monday, only has 10k miles on it, and today, I started to look at a few things and much to my dismay, I found a little mayonnaise looking residue right under the oil cap. I pulled the dip stick and it looked fine, oil looks very clean. Any idea besides going back to where I got it, what it could be? I think it means there is water in the oil or coolant, but I don't remember.
Thanks,
Tom

That is normal. No worries. Your KJ does not have an infection.

Did your KJ see a trail as you were driving? It may have made a mess in its pants.

Its just condisation that happens normaly. Take your jeep out for a nice long run every so often. We're not the only ones with the problem any chrystler with the same set up has the same problem. Its just somethin else you gota clean...it never ends. :D

I had that same thing a few months ago. I used an oil aditive cleaner and it went bye bye.

Just clean the cap out and them smear some peanut butter on it to prevent that from happening again in the future.

Keep an eye on the PCV valve and change it regularily since it's right up there on the neck and gets all full of the same gunk.

Dont use cheap oil either. There no excuse since you can buy Mobil 1 for $20 at walmart or Valvoline for $18(5 quart jugs).
