Canbus fluid.................they all do it

Never seen this on mine - if it was me I would fit new gaskets.

Next question, how do you top it up.

 

[GS_or_bust]

I mentioned this at a service and was told it was designed that way to stop water build up causing corrosion.

If you have the cat on then you should expect that!
The platinum from the cat transforms the exhaust emissions in to water !

do you mean palladium?.does it turn exhaust gas to water er no,is water a by product of combustion?er yes

Big JC, he transformed water into wine. Now THAT is a miracle

and your answer was

Nowt as usual

All exhausts dribble a bit of water, from condensation especially on start-up - some exhausts, even have little holes to let it dribble out, FFS

Another classic post, whatever next

 

[Beemerman59]

I misread the OP's post - I thought he meant the headers up by the real exhaust valve. If its the flappy widget thingy near the silencer then I wouldn't know as I don't have one

Ah, the other practioner of totally useless comments chimes in.

Now why didn't you say that in the first place Johnny instead of posting something totally useless?

Cos I couldn't believe someone was actually asking, that he was worried about a few dribbles of harmless water, dripping out at the lowest point of his exhaust on start-up

Especially when the ambient temperature is pretty low

Do these people actually know what happens in an internal combustion engine

Like i said originally "bit of a dumb question" really, and yes i do no wot appens with a combustion engine, but never mind, teach me to ask a question, but i spose every forum has cocky priks, who know absolutly everything there is to know about everything

but cheers to the ones that did answer me question

You'll get used to the sarcastic comments on here

Yes sir!
All cats have platinum inside ,That for the exhoust emissions are transformed in to wather! To save the inviroment
Platinum it is the only metal that is extracted from carbon himself and in contact to a different carbon has a chemical irritation that transforms it in to wather when is in contact with the air !
Also the Diamont is a carbon himself and not a rock !
