Hiya,

Can anyone tell me what this means?
I don't clean the exhaust very often, but I noticed an accumulation of white powder on the downward facing tips.

No water or oil problems that I know of.
Hope its not serious, :(

Is the space between the twin pipes narrowing?

sounds like your car has a problem, but fear not, you may have caught it in the early stages. get it checked into the priory asap - it'll thank you for it in the long run - sooner or later you'll end up with a single exit, ala daniella westbrook :shock:

Sorry - don't get ya. The exhaust looks as it always has. Just a bit of powder on the outside edge.

No change to the shape or look of the exhaust.......

Moisture from combustion / condensation / rain boiling off maybe.
