Angry Muffler...

Get condinsation at the end to the tailpipe, that's normal I guess, but now I notice I'm getting it from the very end of the muffler, now I don't think this is surpose to happen, or is it...Did they bore a pin hole there so it would come out and not sit in the muffler?

Mufflers are supposed to have a weep hole to let the water out so I think that's what you're seeing.

That is normal. The thing that is annoying about mine is that my concrete drive slops up hill to the house. when I take short drives the water sits in the muffler. When I park it at home it all drains out of this little hole. After a year I have this great big rust stain on the concrete. The power washer will take most oil stains etc of the concrete but not this rust stain.

Weeping muffler

I've got the same problem. My wife works less than two miles from home so when she comes home for lunch and in for the night, she leaves a puddle of water on my new concrete driveway.

It finally got cold enough the other night to freeze the dribbles so it was really obvious on the driveway. I feared that it was brake fluid so I quickly got a flashlight and crawled under to see what was leaking. Saw water dripping from the muffler and found the little weep hole. Can't wait for it to start leaving rusty stains on my new concrete...hope it at least keeps the muffler from rusting through.

Watery Muffler,

I have the same problem. When the mufler finally rots out in a couple of years, I'm going to replace it with Stainless Steel. Then never haver to worry about it again.
