Default Exhaust problems... WATER COMING OUT OF MUFFLER! WHAT!? WHY!?

How odd is water to be coming out of the muffler? I really don't get whats going on. I stepped on the gas to like 6000RMP while parked and all this water came out of the muffler. What the hell is up with that? Is this normal? How can i fix this? I know it's not coolant because it's not green, the water is clear. Tell me what you guys think.

Id say your blowing out condensation build up in your muffler. Do you have a canister or is it a baffled muffler?

Do a pH test and see if it's drinkable. If so, then bottoms up

More than likely.

I seldomly drive my Civic, I park it for weeks at a time under a car cover; it rains frequently where I live and water will sit in the muffler. When I start it, it just blows all out. It doesn't negativley impact my car at all.

You know you have a probem, when the weather is dry outside and you're shooting fluid out of the exhaust.

Solution to what? It's been stated that there is no problem. Unless you keep your muffler heated and covered there will be condensation.

lmao honestly

Prolly just condensation built up in your pipes. Did you wash your car? Or if your parked in a kiddy neighborhood than it might have been one of those little rugrats. If it continues you might have problem.

Or maybe you have one of those hydrogen cars!!!

My cars been doing this for the longest time now. I just decided to ask if this was a major problem or not. And my car is always parked in the garage. But as everyone says, it's just **** building up in my muffler. I guess it's normal. Plus, i'm running a straight pipe
