your car will be fitted with a cat in the exuast system witch gets very hot when you switch it off they tent to condensate and leave a puddle of water in the exaust system so when you first start the car it blows it all out. but to be sure i would check the water leavle in you expantion tank and keep an eye on it

hope this helps
