The condensation in the oil cap is normal in winter, its just crankcase moisture that hasn't had a chance to burn off or escape. Your operating temp issue is just contributing to the buildup of moisture, fix that, take it for a long drive, and you should be good to go

Alot of GM vehicles exibit this condition. Nothing to worry about. Just do what was mentioned above. The best thing is to drive the car long enough to get it fully warmed up and burn all of the condensation out. If you can't do that then you will just have to live with it.
