hey evryone.. new to the forum, and never owned a toyota before..couple of questions..

is this normal:



and is this pink crap factory??



no engine light, and it seems to be running great except for some pinging..

 

i dont understand what your asking in the first pic? the exhuast? The piping looks a bit to small if its aftermarket. Whats the Model? Motor type?

and i couldnt tell you for sure in the second pic, but my guess would be no.

Anyways, welcome to the forums, and congrats on the new yota!

 

in the first pic im talking about all the black residue..


thanks for the welcome

 

the residue could be due to the size of the piping, it looks smaller than stock to me, is it aftermarket?

I had the same problem when i swapped an H22a into my accord, i left the stock exhaust on for a bit and the backpressure turned the back of my car into a sooty mess.

 

i'm assuming it's factory, i just got the truck a couple weeks ago so i'm not sure.. is it something i should have checked out or is cleaning it the only problem?

 

Post up info on your vehicle, what type of Toyota? What year? What engine?

I know my exhaust's don't spit crap out all over the paint and flaps.
