Kind of a silly question, but I'll ask anyway. When I first start my car from cold, a bit of liquid sprays from the exhaust. It seems to be dirty water, sooty actually, and can stain that which is behind the car. My theory is that as the exhaust system cools, condensation forms and accumulates in the low spot - that point just after the twin pipes exit the rear muffler, before the upward/rearward bend. Then the next time I start the car, the force of the exhaust casuses this dirty water to spray out the pipes. After a minute or less, it stops. Has anyone encountered this? I was considering drilling a tiny "weep hole" in each pipe right at the low point to allow the water to drain. Any comments would be appreciated, thanks.
