Lots of Soot in tail pipes
New to turbos.I have 5000 miles on car no oil loss what so ever runs fine but lots of soot (black resin ) at end of tail pipes. Wipes right off. Is this common with the turbo 4 cylinders. Its done this from day 1.

I also have what seems like recent increase in black fluffy soot. Weather / gas blend related?
something i noticed online. "... new research out of the University of Toronto's Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering shows that GDI isn't necessarily the greener choice. Although GDI engines emit lower levels of CO2, they emit more black carbon—the climate-warming particle commonly known as soot—and toxic volatile organic compounds, such as benzene and toluene." https://phys.org/news/2016-07-gasoli...en-choice.html |

I have cleaners and cloth ready in my garage every time I get home. I literally clean my exhaust tips after every drive. It's insane.

Yes it will always be there. I cleaned mine a few times, then decided it wasn't worth the effort. The car is just as fun with the tips all sooted up!

By the way, NevrDull and Mother's mag polish makes a 5-minute job of cleaning the tips.

My tips do not get sooty DD 50-75% ethanol in the LTG. It's surprisingly clean.
