I have moisture build up in the oil fill spout. It is not using water at all. There is no milky color to the oil only at the fill spout. Wondering if you would have any idea why or what I could do? My daughter drives it back and forth to school about 7 miles each way. I tell her to warm it up but not sure if she really does. Have not changed the PCV valve maybe need to but really hard to get to.

Driving the distance you quote is one problem should be at leas t 10 miles to properly warm up. Change oil more often (3000 mi oil and filter) as it is probably building up fuel in engine or drive on eway 20 miles one way once a week
