I think this is to do with the air con.

Ever since I have had my Jap TT I have notice every now and again when I park up it starts to leek water.

It has been like this for 6 months and all the level's have been fine duing the last 6 month's

 

Any ideas?

Where did you notice the leak?

If its the footwell area then there is a air-con water pipe that can sometimes get blocked or it may be the heater core behind the dash(the water may be green with coolant).

Check where the leak landed and see if it is water and not coolant. Should be able to get a better idea then.

The water is coming from the center area of the engine and is not hot.

 

doesn't tast of anything other than tape water ( I don't make a habit of it)

If you've been running the A/C then when you shut the engine off you will see some water discarged onto the floor. This is quite normal on all cars with A/C, but only after you've been driving around with the blower on ice!

Yeah Timmy has a very valid point.

 

It is condensation formed on the Condesor of the AC system i think that drips. It is as you describe - First time i noticed it was after i bust my clutch pivot fork which pissed ot HF all over the place - just paid nissan 450 quid to repair it and saw a drip the next day - put a sizable load in mi draws after that i tells ya.

 

Keep an eye on your coolant temp no the less tho.

Thank f**k for that!!!

Nico, does that redeem me from the "put power-steering fluid" in your HICAS top-up then? Now can I help you put your car back together without having to just make the cha all day...LOL???

Oh sh!t, I'd wondered what the hell he was on about too. Duh!

Thank you all for your feed back.

The next time someone tells me my car has a leek I will just reply "no its a hot day and its just having a wee"

PS It is from Wales.
