Black liquid from the exhaust

[DangerD]

Moved my car out of the garage this morning and this is what sprayed out the exhaust.


Is it normal??

It did rain last night and moisture could have settled at the tip of the exhaust and mixed with the soot.
Ran my finger along the inside of the tip and it was black.

It has a very low viscosity and was not "oily".

to me it looks like soot mixed with the morning condensation coming out of the exhaust. I have a ford which does the same. during the day its fine though. took it in for engine repairs (unrelated).

This could be a combination of water residue from the rain as well as condensation.

Nothing unusual.

Normal.

Especially if your diesel has a straight tip and not the conventional downwards pointing one :roflol:

Seen nasty things sprayed onto walls after a car wash :fencelook:

Ah, I thought so. Just wanted to make sure.

Thanks gentlemen.
