After a snowfall, we often see a spike in vehicles brought in with concerns about "coolant leaks." But here's the thing—it’s not always a leak! That water dripping from your exhaust? It’s likely just condensation, especially when snow melts under a hot exhaust system. Sometimes, it even takes on a fluorescent yellow-green tint, making it look more alarming than it is.
What’s happening? Your vehicle’s exhaust is producing water vapor (a natural byproduct of combustion) that condenses as it cools, especially in winter. Snow below your car accelerates the process.
Not sure if it’s normal or something more serious? We’re here to help! Give us a call to book an appointment and keep your vehicle running at its best this winter.
