Water still drips out however there is no longer white smoke or very little. I am out of town and need to get home. Is it safe? I Immediately shut it down for obvious reasons and havent started it since. The engine has 5k miles on it. I have notice when i have start a car water dripping throug tailpipe what is the reason my car engine is good condation or bad condation.
How much water? White smoke and water droplets continues and smells,with coolant reservoir disappear in 2 weeks. Sounds like a blown head gasket or intake manifold gasket leak. You should get that fixed soon before the car overheats and causes further damage. Hi my rav 4 with 3s-fe it has a problem of water coming out of the exhaust manifold on cylinder number 4 only what could be the problem I have just overhauled the engine. A lot of water is pouring from my exhaust on my Denali, but without white smoke.
And it runs fine, beautifully in fact, but the coolant level drops quickly and the engine will overheat. Sounds like you may have a head gasket leak. I would get it checked out to see what the cause of the coolant drop is.
Recently a check engine light showed up on gauge when I started my car in the morning followed by sweet smell with water droplets from my exhausted and Am really puzzled with what that would be the cause???? Table of Contents. Small water splashes out and it has a chemical smell from the muffler.
No smoke Reply. Normally, though, leaks occur at the exhaust manifold. The exhaust manifold is responsible for collecting exhaust gases from all the engine's cylinders and funneling them through a single pipe, which eventually leads to a catalytic converter -- as well as one or two oxygen sensors -- before reaching the tailpipe.
If there's a crack in your vehicle's exhaust manifold, it will likely result in an exhaust leak. While some drivers have experienced success by welding their cracked exhaust manifold, you should consider replacing it instead. Assuming your vehicle's exhaust manifold is leaking, replacing it with a new one will ensure that no exhaust gases are able to leak from this component of your vehicle's exhaust system.
It converts the toxic waste products of the vehicle into non-harmful components as in water or gas form. Water dripping out from exhaust is an example of a catalytic convertor working at its best and this is not something that you should be worried about. Another issue specifically with catalytic converters is theft. In and , the number of cases of catalytic converter theft has been rising dramatically.

Condensation From Heat If your car is in a colder climate, it will need to warm up before it can work properly. This causes excess heat to be built up in your car and is later expelled through the tailpipe. That heat will produce condensation in your exhaust system, so you will see water droplets coming out of your tailpipe.
This has the potential to be dangerous, but all you need to do is let the engine run for a few minutes before you start driving.
