But, the car is driven 12 miles each way on the highway to work and back 3 to 5 days per week. That should be sufficient to burn off the condensate. The exception was that over the holidays it was not driven as much because I took time off from work.

Is there a reason you would not use Sea Foam? It was the only suggestion made by the Service Advisor that might be preventative.

Is there a post about how to locate and clean out the valve?

The only positive item the SA brought up was that, if there were issues with the exhaust/emissions, that it would be covered under the 8 years/80K mile warranty. After all, there was oil dripping out of the tailpipe --that can't be good for those systems... He said that to get rid of the oil smell, they would idle the car for 3 or 4 hours.

Rather than pay the dealership $1900 ($1500 in labor) I may look for an indie mechanic. Does anyone know of someone in the Minneapoilis, MN area? Thanks again.
