I've noticed in steady rains, water starts to drip down on passenger side behind the glove box soaking the foam and eventually dripping onto the floor mats. At first I thought it was a "condensation drain tube" that came loose. But it dripped the last time it rained and I hadn't used the AC. Also, I couldn't find any kind of tubing under there. I did find a bunch of wires and electronics and thats why I'm worried. Could the water be coming in from the vent or grill that stretches accross the bottom of the windshield covered with foam?   Adam Ross (Discodriveradam) Member Username: Discodriveradam Post Number: 190 Registered: 01-2003 Posted on Tuesday, February 10, 2004 - 04:29 pm:    Underneath the vehicle, on either side of the transmission tunnel, are two "nipples" that are the drains for the a/c condensation lines. Take a straightened clothes hanger or something comparable and stick it up there and see if they are clogged. Hopefully that will take care of it.   Leigh Watkin (Leighcrx) New Member Username: Leighcrx Post Number: 1 Registered: 02-2004 Posted on Saturday, February 14, 2004 - 03:19 pm:    Rain is probably entering via the air intake for the heater, should have a plastic baffel fitted to stop direct rain ingress. Official LR fix!

Make sure the drains are still in place.   Sam Hayes (Mulesnx) New Member Username: Mulesnx Post Number: 36 Registered: 09-2003 Posted on Wednesday, February 18, 2004 - 11:23 pm:    I had the exact same problem with my 97 disco. The dealer told me it was probably the a/c condensation getting clogged. I thought they were just trying to make me pay for nothing, but they took an air pressurized pump and blew a bunch of crap out of the system. It worked and they only charged me $20.
