Urgent Help Please

[R11ysf]

I've just picked up my car from having some work done and driven it 50 miles home with the last 10 driving through central London in rush hour. I parked up and spent some time playing with the new stereo I'd just had fitted. When I came to move the car there was a big puddle of water coming from behind the front n/s wheel. It was clear and didn't smell of coolant.

The car did not miss a beat on the way back and the temp of water and oil only ever got to high 90's which is perfectly normal. I had the A/C on the whole way as it was so hot so could this be the A/C purging?? Or do I now need to spend my weekend looking to sort a low loader to get it transported to a garage?

Thanks all.

Let it cool down check all fluid levels, but its more likely just normal air con purge

Condensation from the air-conditioning?

Mind you, it was never a "big" puddle...

My Cerbera leaves a puddle about the same size as the old style dustbin lids when the air con's been on for a while.

Few, thanks guys. I've checked all levels and given it a run out without the AC and no leak and all seems ok. I was really worried for a while there after not having it for a couple of weeks I really want to enjoy it - especially with Rockingham next week.

Thanks everyone once agin.

Yes, the drain from the AC evaporator is behind the F/R wheel. Quite a bit of water will come out on a hot day and is completely normal.

Yep, my Tam does the same, in the same place, though not all the time. More weirdly, the passenger side alu control where the window up/ down and door opener sits gets very cold and wet when my aircon is on.......!
