Okay, I searched and did not come up with anything. This is kind of weird... I did a sharp left turn and I heard this sloshing sound. I looked down at the passenger side and there was clear water pouring out from under the dash in, I assume, the vacinity of the A/C condenser. This water was clear like I said, had no smell, and was relatively cool which leads me to believe it was condensation. I had the A/C on and usually when I do there are slow drips beneath the car - this time there were none at all. Can anyone point me in the right direction on how to remedy this problem or how to fix the drain hose or whatever it is? Carpet is soaked... I hope it does not rot.

there is a drain pipe under the hood under where the
a/c pipes go through the fire wall, blow through that
tube, it is plugged with dust or dirt, then water should flow again

If that was clogged it would cause lots of water to drain into my car as well?

all the condensation that you would usually see on the
ground out side the car would start to run inside if
the tube is plugged.

Yep, sounds like your drain tube is blocked...had the same problem, thought I had a leak, bought a new condenser, and when pulling the drain blew it out, runs fine now...

Bringing this thread back from the dead. Well, I cleaned the tube (straigtened closehanger) and that did the trick. This weekend I was driving to St. Louis and when arrived I happened to make a hard left turn and guess what... a torent of water. I do not believe more than two and a half weeks had passed from when I cleaned it the first time and it was again clogged up all to hell. My question now is what in the world is getting in there to clog it up so quickly and how can I prevent it from getting clogged in the future, short of cleaning it all the time?

use a air compressor to blow back up that hose
into the a/c box that should clear it out, what you
did was to poke a hole into the dirt that was blocking it
and it didn't take long for the little hole to get plugged again, blow it out.
