Hello, I was driving the 348 Spider in the rain yesterday (please don't hate me for driving in the rain - it looked clear when I left the house). Anyways, while driving home, I felt a little drip on my left foot while it was resting on the dead pedal. Then another drip. Definitely dripping water. BTW, it was raining so hard, I could only go 45 MPH. Question: Any ideas what could be dripping water and from where it may be coming from? Where is the a/c outlet drain/hose from the evaporator? Thanks!
RTFM, The 348 Spider owners manual says something like: "Some egress of water & air is to be expected."
(Said in good humor) When i drive sometimes my trousers have a small wet spot, but have a feeling you are referring to something different ;-)
HAHAHAHA!!! Ask the folks who attended the VIR track day this spring about my 348 in the rain!! I had goldfish swimming in the car because of all the rain that came in. Seriously, I had big-time dripping on my left foot too. I find it comforting that most of the water was running into the electric instruments and such. It could have been a shocking experience. My fix? Wear crappy shoes and keep driving. -Daniel
My 355 has the same problem. The 355 has the same AC box as the 348 I have taken a small piece of plexaglass and put it in the lower 1/2 inch of the return air vent with silicon to act as a water dam.This stopped about 75% of the water problems. I think if I made it higher the problem would be totaly solved. I have checked all the drains, all OK. For some reason when you accerrate or go up a hill the water comes out throught the return air vent, Just another bad Ferrari design.
LOL, roof was up. enjoythemusic - That's the OTHER wet spot. I was only originally willing to share the wet foot issue. Is the leak because of the rain or because of the a/c leaking condensation?
