Is this a brand new unmodified car? If so, I highly doubt it's your headgaskets. It could just be ash from various leftover oils, etc from manufacturing.

Yes it is brand new unmodified car :cry:

Its crack. Your car has been snorting crack.


Honestly its just probably some harmless substance. I would love to see where you found the information that it said it was the headgaskets.

Probably planet-9 (porsche forums)

Oh how i love car symptoms can cross from a porsche to a gt86 just because of a engine design. Lol.

:iono::iono::iono::iono: you never know
its weird how is just one side of my exhaust tip :(

Wipe it out, see if it keeps happening. I wouldn't worry unless it keeps happening, then investigate.

What makes it more interesting that it is in just 1 exhaust tip is that this car has dual tips, not dual exhaust. That makes it a lot more likely to just be some debris that got caught in there somehow.

i wipe it out this morning and in the afternoon it happened again, after i clean it there is still sticky black stain that smells like something burnt.:cry:

Are you consuming coolant?

is the car consuming coolant...just in case Zion wasn't specific enough lol.

Does you're car smell like rotten eggs? (common smell for bad catalytic converters), could be the muffler disintegrating. is it white powder like sugar or flower? or more coarse like fine metal shavings?

:iono::iono: dont know if the car is consuming coolant...
it sometimes smell like something burnt because new car new seal.
the white powder is more of like cocaine got dissolve in water:lol:

consuming coolant? :iono:

I think you need one of these...

And come back in 10k miles when nothing has gone wrong with your car and wonder why you were so worried.
