Hi everytime I start my car oil spits out from my muffler what does that mean? It also does it if I rev the car out. Thanks

Either that or its condensation and carbon from exhaust? I can see how this could look like oil

I've only had a micra for a couple of months but I had this when I first purchased my micra. Apparently it's common after an oil change. When was the last time you changed your oil eddie?

How many kilometeres on the engine?
A cared for Micra motor should easily do 250,000k's with out showing signs of wear. |
