Check the radiator coolant level, and the overflow bottle level. If these levels are not falling, then it is just normal water vapor that has condensed inside the exhaust system, especially if you have only being doing short trips that do not allow the exhaust pipe to heat up enough to dry it out completely. If the weather has only just started to turn cold in your area, the water vapor may become more apparent than previously during warmer weather. If your breath produces water vapor while you are walking outside, so will your car......

This is normal for internal combustion engine. For every gallon of fuel burned it can produce a pint of water.

1993 Nissan Pathfinder. Where is the tail light relay located please?
Question edited for clarity.
Question moved to model category.

tail lights don't need relays as the amperage is very low. Only headlights and fog lights use relays.

1999 Blazer ZR2. Replacing muffler and tail pipe. Can not pull apartl flange on muffler and exhaust pipe. Bolts broke off and still can't break. Don't have air impact chisel. Would heat help.
The auto store probably sells a big chisel and a 4 lb hammer? If your going to replace anyway, use a hack saw. In my younger days, I've cut many a tail pipe with a hack saw. So a new muffler and tail pipe will have new flanges? I can't see anything from here.

Water comes out of my 2008 pathfinder
Clear water coming out of the tailpipe is NORMAL! Of the many by-products of combustion, water is one of them. During the chemical reaction of combustion with a hydrocarbon, hydrogen is "freed" along with carbon and oxygen. There symbols are H, O, and C. The water molecule's structure is HOH or H2O. The main by- product is carbon monoxide or CO.

Anyway if the water looks like clear water, that's normal.

Why does my saturn L300 keep loosing engine coolant ? I have to add some every 3 days.
I would have the water pump checked, if that is not it, is water coming out of the tail pipe? If water is coming out of the tail pipe, you may have a head gasket problem. Something else to check is the oil. If it is discolored, then you do have a head gasket problem or worse yet, a cracked head.

My 98 firebird tail pipe blows white smoke and water out the tail pipe then as i let it sit for 30 minutes the engine gets hotter then gas like smile and heavier smoke come out the tail pipe it also s
One of the main causes of white exhaust smoke and coolant loss is a cracked or warped cylinder head, a cracked engine block, or head gasket failure caused by overheating. A cracked head may allow coolant to leak into one or more cylinders or into the combustion chamber of the engine. Dirty coolant, a poorly maintained cooling system, a low coolant level, or a non-functioning cooling fan can cause engine overheating. In addition, engine wear can eventually cause the gaskets to lose their capacity to seal properly allowing internal coolant loss. Intake manifold gasket and head gasket failures are two of the most common sources of internal coolant loss caused by engine wear.


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

Why dose gas come out of tail pipe 2001 .3,3L
It's not possible for liquid gasoline to come out of the tailpipe - however, due to chemical processes that take place inside the engine and in the exhaust system which are too in-depth to explain here, it is very common for water to come out of the tail pipe - especially on cooler more humid days.
