My type R spits at me!

[superR]

hey everybody ,i was wondering if it is normal for a DC2 ITR to spit out what seems to be oil on cold starts.It runs great, semms as normal as can be except for this spitting business.
my parents are pi$$ed cause im getting oil all ova the garrage floor and the back of the garrage door!
any ideas anyone? :confused:

u sure its not carbon/exhuast dust mixed with water?

it happens to my car in the morning from condensation.

[superR]

i have a feeling thats what it may be....... but are there any other possibilities>?

any ideas anyone? :confused:

get rid of parents.




I am quite sure Chi is right and its a carbon water cocktail. It will probably scrub off with a bit of elbow grease.

[superR]

the parents want me to get rid of the car......hmmmmmm i wonder which would go first
PARENTS!!!!! lol

if your engine was spitting oil check your oil level it would be going down.

Btw.. do you have a large exhaust tip? usually water gets inside due to condensation so that when it starts up it spits out the water this is normal.

Cover the exhaust during night? might stop the exhaust getting condensation in it?

thanks guys ....now knowing its nothing serious my mind can rest easy.

When i think about it a similar thing happened to my friend.

Started to spit out black liquid thought it was condensation, then the catback rattled, and they white smoke came out and the head gasket blew off.

I think u should take it to mechanics to be safe.

got to hate that but im sure its just condesation! my garage floor is covered in it! lol
parents arent happy either so looks like i got some work to do when i got spare time

[sivic]

yeah, i would put money on it being condensation and exhaust soot

good work!

Don't reverse park. Start your car in the morning with the door opened..

[superR]

yeh its got a 4inch tip on it....... i think i'll have to go and get some acid to clean it all off.
the oil level does go down a little quick though....... but i change it every 5000km's so it doesnt fase me.

[kayot1k]

lol doesnt phase you lol.
it will in alittle while then you'll be changing every 3000

If you have a straight through muffler at the rear this is normal, just carbon and water, used to happen with my old car.
