rear window leak? a/c?

i noticed when I took out the jack in the wife's X that the SCMT box had gotten wet at somepoint. I assumed it was the A/C in that compartment. Is this normal, or is the window seal leaking. My wife said the window was leaking in a heavy rain a few weeks ago. I live in San Anotnio, so rain is rare, but when we get it, look out.

Re: rear window leak? a/c?

People in the past have reported this is usually due to the air conditior lines sweating. Make sure they are well insulated.

Hope this helps,

Re: rear window leak? a/c?

JADFPE is correct, I store my DFA under the blower and noticed the bag I keep it in getting wet. Some of the black tar insulation was pulled off since it is so sticky so I put it all back and covered all the lines with duct tape to protect the black stuff. No more water!

When my rear blower was on high, it was blowing water out of the gaps where the a/c lines go into the black plastic housing. I sealed the gaps with silicone, and this has solved the problem. My condensate drain line was clear. Dale
