Dazzevans Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Went for a drive with the missus down to the south coast (40 mile round trip). I parked back on my drive, and when my daughter got home about 20 mins later she pointed out some water leaking just aft of the drivers side front wheel. Looking underneath water was dripping from the tray about an arms length in. I pulled the tray down a bit and a fair bit of water fell. Any ideas what this could be? It has no discernible smell. My drive is slightly sloped so it may be leaking a little forward of that spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lonewolfgjp Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Had you had your air con on full blast with the roof down? If so it’s just moisture from the air con working overtime in this heat, I had similar on the hottest day of the year in my 986 a few years back 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzevans Posted July 31, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 I hope that is the case, but I barely had the air con on during the drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdie Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Agreed - likely to be condensate from the a/c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattman42 Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Is the liquid slimy to the touch? Could it be coolant? I had similar and it was the coolant pipes leaking, but mine is a 987 so not sure if it has the same design Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
½cwt Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Not the same design as 987 but can leak in same way if the spring clamps on the hoses corrode and weaken or crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzevans Posted August 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 By way of an update, I drove it yesterday with no air con on and it was fine. From this I can deduce that: a. It was condensation b. The aircon is working perfectly if it created that much condensation as it was only in for about 10 mins! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edc Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 If you have the Aircon on with the roof off in warm weather it will work overtime. I've had the internal duct under the steering column drip cold water on my ankles when driving for some hours in 30+ in Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninesomething Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Flippers.... I never have this problem. Suppose I ought to get my aircon fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
