Yeah it seems to be pretty common. I dropped it off at my dealer in an afternoon, and he called back later saying they needed to order a drain elbow. He overnighted the part, and I picked it up from the dealer the next day. It's been dry ever since. I wish I would have asked for a part #. I doubt it's a part they stock, and if you could call that in first you could maybe save yourself a day in the shop.

I did roughly 700 km's yesterday up to the Algonquin Park area and back, and for the first time ever, my better half noticed that one of her shoes was wet (spare set of shoes tucked in sitting on the floor) and the drip was coming from that black box under the passenger side dash (haven't looked at it closely yet so from the drivers side looking down at paaenger side it looks like a vent or black box). It wasn't a lot of water but enough that I'll have it addressed.
I assume this has become common enough that the dealer will know what I'm talking about.

Great! Thanks for the tip.

Hey my A/C smells when I first turn it on, could it be this? And my warranty just ran out.
