The mayo on the cap will be condensation mixing with the oil from the plastic cam covers on them. | |

That's what I'd been told of before, mines already noisy from the timing chain! Maybe I might leave it as its running fine maybe just flush it with a few litres of clean oil instead! | |

Think it's Lucas stuff, I've always avoided it but only due to hear say, think I'll try it can't see it doing any real harm other wise surely they wouldn't sell it, I no vauxhall offer it when you take your car in. | |

Heard about engine flushes thinning the oil out so it removes it easier, from the likes of bearings | |

I've always been told not to use them and just do regular oil changes instead. | |
