mines is the same mate i think its a mixture of two things

1 condensation in exaust system
2 your car will prob be running a bit rich ,so the unburnt fuel is mixing with the condensation and making you blak liquid

i was overtaking a car yesterday (think it was a rover 620 or somthing) and it was pissing out what looked like water form the exhaust all the time that i was overtaking.

Like someone had left a hosepipe on.

We were going uphill so i guess it could be that.
