Rendevouz.
 
Rainer.....Rendezvous......Regal.....you see the problem, they all get jumbled when you don't pay attention to Buick! LOL!

Anyway, nice mix, did well!
 
I should add that this is the second fill with schaeffer oil.
1st fill went about 5k with a neutra purge.

The water is odd, I'm guessing you aren't doing short trips with this. Any condensation on the bottom of the fill cap? Is the PCV valve working correctly?
 
Hey Rob. According to Nap it does not have a pcv valve.

50% short trips 25% city 25% hwy.
 
Probably a side effect of the short trips. My mother had an '05 Colorado with the 5-cyl that would get some crankcase condensation during the winter months.
