Cooliechang Clutched May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 Hi all, I would like to check with any bros who has the same problem before. I am driving an ody RB1, recently when I switched on my car aircon, i can hear something like water flowing from my co driver side. It is like those water fountain sound but no water leaking. Please advise what could be the problem? air con compressor breaking down soon? Thanks in advance for the advice. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcw75 Hypersonic May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 The aircon has a drainage pipe. Maybe it's clogged? U sure no leak? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xmenfreak2 Neutral Newbie May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 Hi , confirm plus chop your air con valve for the water outlet is clogged. Just tell the workshop to unclog it. Do it soon as mine i waited for about a month then suddenly my co driver side started to have water dripping on the inside of the car... hope it helps...

Enye Hypersonic May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 aircon condensate trapped in the drainage and not flowing out to the ground usually caused by dried leaves accumulation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver_blade Turbocharged May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 Check under the front passenger floor mat if it is damp. Like some has pointed, it is probably a choked drain pipe. Get mech to check. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My previous car had that sound for 2 yrs but air con was strong n cold. Did not bother. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5936 1st Gear May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 Very likely AC man will not let you off the bite with simple purging or unchoking of drainpipe.They will offer you AC service and advise you that unplugging is only a stop gap measure.The blockage will return soon, as the AC is full of debris/dirty.So be alert and decide what's good enough for you.

Hosaybo 6th Gear May 21, 2013 Share May 21, 2013 Try to locate the drain pipe. If you have access to those industrial air gun, plug it in the pipe and shoot a few burst of high pressure air. That is how my mech does it and it has been 2 years and the prob have not come back. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
