Beamercub Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Is it just me? I have thought it might be a head gasket at one point because it was a heck lot of cloudage around me... I haven't noticed if other Legacy's are producing the same volume... I do notice that some makes produce nothing visible.. Usually something like a Honda CRV or random Toyota.. And then there is me and i literally look like Sanford and Son or something. Could it be something to do with the boxer engine and the exhaust being at a higher temperature? Or could being the H6 model produce more volume ? Anyone else notice anything similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverton Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 If it doesn't have a smell, and your fluids don't get low between services, I wouldn't worry about it too much. If you don't already it would help to let the car warm up for 4-5 minutes before starting your journey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Capacity Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 All cars will put out vapor on cold start up until the exhaust system warms up. It has to do with temp and humidity. I started my 86 F150 yesterday for the first time in a week, 36F and light rain, it blew lots of vapor, until it warmed up. I had to start the 09 Spec B for the first time since last weekend, it also blew out vapor. 1 305,600miles 5/2012 ej257 short block, 8/2011 installed VF52 turbo, @20.8psi, 280whp, 300ftlbs. (SOLD). CHECK your oil, these cars use it. Engine Build - Click Here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ncted Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I've noticed my 2018 2.5i seems to continue to put out a significant amount of water vapor, even after warming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
