^ You mean 75/25 m/w or 25/75 w/m right? +1 here, I've been running 75/25 m/w and my car seems to love this concentration the best so far (default threshold / gain settings still).

You all are doing it wrong. You shouldn't be on more than 60/40. Or 10/90 with E85.

So, a few weeks ago before putting the w/m in, I had the fmic hose disconnected on the cold side... And there was a film of oil. Maybe even a small bit of pooling, but it was oil colored.... Today I found this. Looks like water and oil, I hope. So guessing its from the wm mixture as the nozzle is at the top of the vertical piping post fmic... ? Either too far over the vertical piping, jet dripping, or, not atomizing??

Looks like quite a bit... Should I be worried?

I know this is what coolant and oil looks like when mixing... But few reasons I don't believe it's the case. Changed oil last week and the oil was dark used oil color, no hints of coolant. Checked oil earlier today and dipstick was normal. If oil was getting blown by as this color, it would be pre fmic too, but pre fmic was normal oil.

Has anyone else with r56 and wm noticed anything?

I spoke with Erik about this. I initially thought this was recirc from the diverter valves, the inflight coming back around and mixing with the oil. But he said the inlet side of the IC was oil, just the outlet had some water mixed in. I'm guessing the line might have dripped some from the jet probably after shutoff of the car. I'd be interested to get some feedback from everyone on what they are seeing, if they have catch cans installed minimizing oil etc.

If it is dripping from the line, there are a couple of fixes for it which we can discuss if this is an issue.
