It would genuinely be quicker to list the things on my car that don't either leak fluids out or let them in... I think the only thing that thankfully hasn't been leaking so far is the petrol side of things! Otherwise, coolant, oil, ATF, rain water, refrigerant... everything has either been leaking into or out of the car. And now I've (hopefully) sorted the air con, I braked a ltitle sharply earlier today and a small downpour made its way out of the heater box into the passenger footwell.

Guess I'll be checking the condensate drains tomorrow... unless its the freaking pollen filter/blower/scuttle panel. Pretty sure it was condensate from where it came from and the fact it hasn't done it at all on that side till now.

I'll rephrase... quicker to list the things on my that haven't been leaking since I got it 5 months ago :) I'm nearly leak free! For now.

Poke up carefully.

The condensate drain pipes are not straight so don't force too much or you might tear them.

Don't poke at all, get underneath and give them a squeeze. You'll know when they are clear as you'll get a stream of water, mud, leaves and other assorted debris run down your arm.

As for the pollencovers, how often to renew the filters, once a year?

I have sealed them with silicone since heavy rain is becoming more common over here, next year I will cut them open with a knife and re-seal them again.

Got underneath and poked both sides with a stick, narrowly avoiding a nasty soaking. The AC removes a LOT of moisture in a P38!

Moved on to replacing the cruise control vacuum line, got as far as running a new pipe and naturally, its pissing it down with rain again. It is only late June, after all...
