Aircon water soaking carpets

[Ed520]

I discovered my car's carpets have been soaked by the aircon water. Maybe the pipe blocked.

Anyone got this experience? know what is the issue?

my Honda airwave having the similar issue as yours. the mechanic tried to clear air con drainage, but still no water dripping when on aircon. need to change the aircon coil. $$$

Bro your airwave how long liao? mine just turn 4 years... hope nothing happen

This could be a case of block air-con pipe. Too much dirt accumulated on the pipe such that the water cannot be drain out. Got to send the air-con for servicing.

 

For stop gap measure, ask your mechanic if it is possible to plug an airgun (commonly found in workshop) to the air-con pipe and tey to clear the blockage. there should be some subber tubing that can be plug out under your glove compartment.

Yeah i checked with the shop, they said most likely the pipe blocked and need to do maintenance.

I guess its time to do it since my car is turning 4 soon!

You just guess it correctly. Pipe that let out condensed water blocked. Take the chance to service (wash) the coil.

This happened to my car. They squeezed the tube, water drained to the ground, problem never came back.

Sorry to dig up this old thread.

 

Am having water accumulation under the carpet in my 6.5 year old Toyota Wish. Should I bring it to my mechanic or to an air-cond workshop?

no worries bro...that is the right way to go.....

 

guess air-con shop would be best altho the mechanics would know too, but the aircon fellas would have the knowhow and tools

Just sent mine today to a ws in indah, used air gun clear blockage... never charge me so I let them polish the headlights for rm30

In yr case, you should send to an aircon workshop.

 

The drainage pipe is blocked

my air-con blockage was cleared using the air-con method and all is still well after 2 years. Good and effective way to clear clockage.

Ty say "maintenence" means at least $30-$40. But ty never say its just a 5 min job of using airgun to blow tru the ac drain pipe to clear or plug back the rubber pipe to the drainage tray only 1 min job.
