    Hey guys… Turning to the experts for some quick input. Went for a nice 30 or 35 minute drive today down here in South Florida. Gorgeous weather. AC on andd the top down. Nothing better. When I got home and noticed streaks of water on the passenger floormat. And only there. Possible that some condensation buildup in one or more of the AC vents and just dripped onto that format? There was no water underneath the foot well or anywhere else. Definitely not a ton, but I’ve never seen it there before. I was doing a fair amount of idling at some lights, and maybe that caused excess condensation to fall out of the vent? Anyway, was curious if anyone had seen that before as I had not on this car

    Thanks !!

    No expert but my guess would be a loose or cracked drain line for the a/c. Have had this happen to me before (not on a 430 tho).

    The AC drain line hangs down under the car next to the battery vent if i remember correctly. Sounds like the drain is blocked so it is overflowing into the car. Take the under floor off and see if the rubber pipe needs clearing

    A coat hanger with the sharp parts rounded off does a pretty good job of clearing the hose from the bottom. Compressed air from the top.

    Ok. But I would need to have the car on a jack/ lift though, right? If so, I don’t have that here at house

    Improvise, i use a couple of these i made from 4x8 rail sleepers- i use these 2 high and you get great access under the engine or the front. Only use compressed air from inside, otherwise you will blow the crap over the carpets
