Keep an eye on water and oil levels usually moisture causes this from short journeys etc

I do alot of short journeys to be fair. Engine seems fine, hoping its just a bit of moisture and not the HG.

Why do people instantly assume HG when they only have a little bit of mayo. If there are no other symptoms and you only generally do short journeys then it's almost certainly just a bit of condensation.
