For every gallon of petrol the engine uses a gallon of water passes out the exhaust pipe and in cold weather it shows as water vapour. I couldn't believe this when I was first told so your exhaust is basically a drain pipe. |

Water vapour from a petrol is absolutely normal sir... The bigger the engine and the colder the weather gets, the more condensation you will see...
