Recently replaced the centre section of Exhaust with a Stainless Steel upgrade.
After driving it for a few days, noticed that the exhaust was blowing from connection between downpipes/centre section, so resealed but then observed fluid pouring out connection between centre section/backbox, what or where would this be coming from??

Hmmmm. Doesn't sound much of an 'upgrade' so far! The liquid will be water - every litre of petrol you burn produces several litres of water, which gets expelled from the tail pipes as vapour or steam, when everything gets nice and hot, but until then, some of it just condenses in the system.
Yeah thought I'd get a Exhaust specialist to fit the Exhaust, but having nothing but bother with at the momentBrianmoooore wrote:Hmmmm. Doesn't sound much of an 'upgrade' so far!

Cheers for clearing that up for me Brian
