Whats broken!! Think it might be from the A/C. Had just pulled up after a long drive, the water was cold. Any ideas what part of the A/C this came from? Condenser?

Cheers

Battery box is behind NSF wheel... So if it's in front then it's more likely the washer bottle overflow pipe, or the bottle is cracked.

Since when have a/c had overflow pipes, they are closed systems I thought?? Only thing you get is condensation dripping off the compressor housing.

Condensation forms on the evaporator (the cold bit), falls into a drip tray, runs down a small pipe and onto the road. The compressor and condensor are hot bits and do not form condensation. smile

I stand corrected then, But still if the water if from infront of the wheel that would suggest it not being the A/C then? Not that I have A/C to know where it is frown
