Ok I have read a lot about water/white smoke from the tailpipe and know that some condensation is normal but how much is normal.
When I first crank my car it smokes white, and drips clear water out the pipe. I dont smell coolant, I dont smell oil but none the less its a little unnerving to see it and when I rev the engine it leaves a streak of clear water and carbon on the driveway about a foot long.

I did a coolant change and it was dark but it had been in there for 2 years and after two weeks no oil has seperated out of it. I did an oil change and didnt see any coolant in it.

I think I am getting paranoid.

i know i know
paranoid
but its been over two weeks with this car with nothing bad wrong.
at first i was like no problem everyone says that this is normal but geez i filled two shot glasses with clear water out of it.

and in case anyone is wondering, yes i did taste it and no it didnt taste like coolant.

now that i think about it, maybe i have been hitting the stuff a little too hard.

If it is really dripping a lot you might want to get the cat changed out. My cat went bad on me and it was pouring white steam out. My eyes burned from the smell too. I had a lot of water dripping from every signle flange on the exhaust. Changed the cat out, no more water.

Well, drinking tail pipe water sure isn't helping.

Dont forget water is a byproduct of combustion... hydrocarbon + oxygen -> water + CO2

lets put it this way
today it was 95 in san antonio
i cranked the car and backed it down the driveway from the garage to the street and it left a trail of water all the way down.


No coolant smell still and with the exception of the oil in the turbine coupler no oil burning. This is just wierd.

Cool,

I was afraid it had something to do with the blown turbo seals. Yep they are gone gone gone. Oil in the intake piping, oil in the air filter and when I did a boost leak I heard air hissing inside the turbine.

Gotta call hahn today and get a rebuild kit.
