    Took Mondial for 50 mile drive this morning. This afternoon around 330pm went to garage and saw this puddle under Image Unavailable, Please Login front. It’s just water from ac condensation. But I haven’t owned this car long enough to know it that’s normal or indicative of an issue.

    Thanks

    Looks like condensate from the aircon. If it were a leak I’d expect other colours (smell, texture). I assume you had the A/C on cold?

    Yea AC was on cold for the whole drive and works well. I’m assuming it’s just water that collected on the evaporator and drained off after being parked? Or could it be that something is icing up and then melted after I shut it off?

    Yeah, I’d say exactly that - pretty terrifying when you suddenly see the wet patch!!!

    I know it was a relief when I smelled and felt it and it was just water.

    Happens to me, but not that much water. Maybe AC was really going! You can make sure by putting a mirror under or just looking, there is a tube right at the front, if nothing else is wet...I bet you’re all good!
