Should the gti throw anything out the exhaust underfull load?
« on: October 08, 2009, 07:25:35 pm »
Basically I've noticed that the car seems to throw something out the exhaust under full load and revs. I can't tell what colour it is but i'll get someone to spot for me tomorrow but do any of your cars seem to do the same thing? Don't know if it's something I should be worrying about or not.

Not to worry then, just been stationary and planted it and it doesn't seem to be throwing anything so wonder if it's just shifting some of the sutt from the exhaust.
