More condensation? there could be more due to changes in temperature and humidity. If the water was coming from your engine, it wouldnt be running.

condensation builds up in the pipes at idle and lower rpms, but when you step on it the exhaust gases push it out.

It could be condensation, but it could also be that your CAT is failing, or you have a cracked head. (worst case scenario)

yea i think you would know if you had a cracked head,but i doubt changing that o2 sensor helped at all. Its just condensation,it happens to me all the time.
