2002 L200.. water gets into the front pass. floor both sides,


Not rain. Radiator level OK.. floor is soaked!!!Cowl drains are open.Could be A/C draining


into car?? How/where??


HELP!!!

 

If you have good a/c then the condensation water from the a/c isn't leaving the drain valve b/c its clogged and running out the cracks and crevices of the HVAC box. On the firewall near the middle at the bottom is a small rubber duck valve that opens to let condensation out but prevent nature from finding a home in your HVAC box. Sediment from the outside eventually gets in there to clog the drain. When you find the drain just poke it open with a pencil tip or similar and watch the water rush out.

 

Thanks!!!!! This is actually my daughters car she is in TX


and I am in AZ, so it may take a day or three for her to get this


done.. will let you konw what happens.. Very annoying problem!!!


Dealer said they would be glad to look into it for like $80/hr.!!!!

 

Can one clean the drain hose from the top, or must you


go underneath car??


thanks...

 

The drain hose is internal to the HVAC box; access is by tearing apart the dash so the front firewall is the only way.
