Air Conditioning Drain???
Got a problem folks.
I've got water "spraying" out under the dash into the passenger footwell. It's not coolant as it doesn't taste like it, plus it's cold.
I have removed all the underside of the dash to take a look. I thought it may have been leaking from the rubber hose just on the right under the glove box (the one with the thumbflap) but it's not that.
Looking above the spider vent you can see the lever that turns with the dial from the hot/cold air dial. The water is dripping out from under there, but seems to be coming out with force when driving.
I cannot see any hoses under there. It can't be the heater matrix either as it's not coolant. My only guess is that it's perhaps fluid from a condensation trap of sorts. No idea if there is one, or where it would be.
I have been using the air conditioning a lot the last few days, usually on max setting. It's definitely not rainwater as it hasn't been raining the last few days until today. It's not screenwash either.
I did notice I had a bit of a cloud machine going on the other day, but yesterday my wife felt water spraying onto her foot. She's not into water sports so didn't really take to it.
You could see the water trickling down the carpet in the right hand back corner of the passenger footwell. With the carpet pulled back it's spraying out from under the centre of the dash, but when idling at a standstill you can see it dripping from the area I mentioned.
Apologies for the long post, but the more information the better I guess.
Hope somone can help, because I'm stumped.
