Sooty exhaust pipe Macan S petrol

I noticed the other day that the far left exhaust pipe on my 2015 Macan is sootier inside than the others. Far right one seems to have some sort of valve in it.
Is this normal?
It is still under under Porsche Approved warranty so I'm extra sensitive to any possible issues.

Yes, normal, that is the design. Unlike some manufacturers, Porsche do not fit fake exhausts to the Macan so, depending on the model and whether fitted with standard or the optional Sports Exhaust, the flaps operate at various times to 'enhance' the sound emitted.
