AIR CON LEAK?

(1/3) > >>

MZ6666:
AFTER USING MY AIR CON A LOT TODAY (OHHHHH YESSSSSS :(biglove): ) , NOTICED THE CARPETS DAMP AND PUDDLES UNDER THE CAR?
IS THIS DOWN TO A DISCONNECTED BREATHER? WHERE HAS IT COME FROM? WHAT IS IT?ETC ETC

MY USUAL REASON FOR DAMP CARPETS WAS THE WATER LAPPING OVER THE DOOR TOPS ! :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:  :twisted:

ANY IDEAS?
CHEERS,RICH

The Fat Controller:
the puddles underneath are from the drain,all air con systems do it,the condensation has to go somewhere.i would guess that the damp carpets are due to the drain pipe either not sealed properly so water escapes down the outside or condensation is forming on the outside of the drain pipe and then running down onto the carpet

MZ6666:
CHEERS MR CONTROLLER,
ANYBODY KNOW;
WHERE THE DRAIN IS ,IS IT HARD TO GET TO ,TIPS ETC??
THE HAYNES DISCO BOOK TELLS YOU HOW AIR-CON WORKS, THEN SAYS-'ANY PROBLEMS,REPORT TO MAIN DEALER AND ASSUME THE POSTITION! :oops: '  :wink:

beast5680:
if you lie under the car the drain pipes come out in the trans tunnel either side of the gearbox about level with the dash, there are two little black rubber hose ends if its like mine, if you see where they are you can sort of guess where they are in the car. they do get kinked and pinched where they go under the carpet causing the damp carpets you speak of

HTH

MZ6666:
CHEERS NEAL,I'LL HAVE A LOOK TOMORROW.
