water out of the exhaust

any ideas? on start up i get water coming out of the exhaust, not just a drip quite a bit. i have checked the oil filler cap and it is clean as a whistle no mayo at all. this is a slight relief as i feared the gasket had gone.

once engine is warm the problem vanishes.

i'm used to driving air cooled so this is all a bit puzzling for me!

Probably just condensation in the exhaust.  I'd expect anything up 5cc would come out.

would this be the short journey syndrome? i only drive it a few miles a day and doesnt get chance to warm up.

If you get water coming out of the exhaust it is a good sign as the setting are near to perfect, well thats what I've been lead to believe.

it's probably condensation unless it's using water ;) my headgasket went and it didn't go in the oil just came out the exhaust when the gasket went properly it was plumes of steam lol
