Exhaust vapour.

The other morning, going home from work...a mate was behind me. He said that as I overtook the wagon in front of me, the exhaust vapour only came from the drivers side...so the other must be a fake Laughing

Why would this happen? I`d expect vapours to exit both pipes Rolling Eyes Steve.

No, coolant is fine. I get vapour coming out of both when going normally and on tick over.

No "mayo" inside oil cap either. Steve.

Could it be that one exhaust was hotter that the other side, at that time? 2006 2.7 TDV6 HSE in Cairns Blue.

I`d only gone 1.5 miles by then, roughly, so maybe..dunno. Not a problem....I`m just curious Very Happy Steve.

Followed my mates Mrs out of work yesterday (no, I don`t normally follow her) in their 3.6 diesel and I noticed theirs was the same...only mainly exiting the driver side Thumbs Up Steve.
