Hello it seems my ST is leaving larger blacker patches on the ground when warming up, anyone has this same scenario? I don’t recall black spots like that.

Condensation in the pipes mixing with soot from the exhaust and passing out through the connections in the exhaust. Perfectly normal.

Like @UNBROKEN said, perfectly normal, every vehicle does it.

Put VP 100 octane unleaded fuel in it and the mess goes away :). Probably not practical though.
