Razi,

Must be an error in your poll. The options are the same questions.

Yes, I agree with Luis Valasco, Razi.

The question and choices are ambiguous. Please re-write and post for us to respond.

Razi,

Whatever the condition and whatever the poll, water and lube oil are not the best of friends. Excess moisture leads to corrosion and rusting. Free water will emulsify in contact with engine oils leading to degradation of the lubricant.

In most cases the cooling system is the cause of water ingress.
