So i took the cerb for a quick blast over the weekend and had the air con (which is actually working, and is actually cold... surprising i know!)

anyhow, parked on the drive afterward which has a slight incline (nose pointing downwards) and you can see that a small pool of water was under the drivers side front wheel hatch

now i guess this is condensation from the air con? or from the drain? but i found it strange as i always thought the aircon bits were on the passenger side? its not coolant that's for sure

only other thing i was thinking is maybe its running from the left to the right of the car (as the drive has a slight slope to the right as well)

thoughts?

It's perfectly normal for a pool of water to appear after the A/C has been used, I can't remember which side it 'normally' appears on. As it's just condensation, it should be nice clean water, with no real smell or taste. I wouldn't worry too much.

The heater is in the passenger wheel arch - the air con is in the drivers side.
