your car is telling you its thirsty, better give it a beer!

well maybe not, but, i'd say its something with the emissions system. something is clogged. when i had a supra, my dipstick kept popping out and it ended up being the pcv system...

crank case pressure is high, check your pcv system and if it's not clogged or wrong then do a compression check. On may turbo apps if you have the car warmed up and running and put your hand over the oil filler and you feel allot of pressure that's BLOW BY but don't panic check your pcv system etc
