One of the most common vehicular problems that most car owners encounter is the strange extrusion of water from their exhaust pipe . You may have asked at one time or the other ‘why is water coming out of my car’s tailpipe?’ and considered the worst with respect to your vehicle. Water coming out of an exhaust pipe isn’t really all that bad, although there are incidences when you should worry if something leaks out of a car’s tailpipe, more often than not it’s something altogether harmless and normal for any vehicle. It can be quite difficult to gauge the severity of tailpipe leaks yourself, so here’s a quick and easy way to help you gauge the severity of tailpipe leakage. A Quick And Easy Guide To Gauge When To Fix Your Tailpipe If And When It Leaks Under normal circumstances, a trifling amount of water in the form of condensation can form on the inside of your car’s exhaust pipe. This is typically the result of driving your car and specific weather conditions which results in water re...

A dictionary definition of smoke describes any airborne particulate that’s rising from burning fuel, be it wood or some other combustible material. Keep that in mind while we delve into smoke and tailpipe noise, because these unwholesome issues need immediate attention. Worst-case Exhaust Smoke Issues Just as a sharp-eyed physician can diagnose medical problems by conducting a few basic tests, so can a mechanic see that something is seriously amiss when your vehicle is producing smoke. Even the colour of the cloudy stuff tells a story. White smoke is often a clue that a coolant leak is in progress. Blue smoke, something no one ever wants to see, indicates a breach in the engine. Oil is burning, the noxious leak is poisoning the breathing cycle of the engine, and the environment is being exposed to very harmful emissions . This worst-case scenario represents a significant threat to the local ecology and to the driver. It must be repaired. The Hazards Associated with Noisy Tailpipes This...

It’s a jaw-dropping prospect, isn’t it? The notion that some unprecedented influence could cause a muffler to explode. Like a blocked pipe in a plumbing system, pressure builds when a fluid-conveying tube is obstructed. Unlike the dirty backup spawned by clogged plumbing, the pressure build-up in the exhaust could make the muffler rupture, so what’s generating the build-up? Is it a blockage, or is it something else? System Deterioration The catalytic converter is loaded with ceramic parts and honeycombed metal plates. Each unit is slightly different due to architectural variances, but metal assemblies and heat-absorbing elements are always part of the inner workings. They catalyze engine fumes while releasing harmless gasses into the tailpipe. Unfortunately, these elements are susceptible to damage. Pushed forward by engine backpressure, the broken innards of a catalytic converter will create a blockage. From here, the pressure goes to work on the muffler seam. In short, i...
