Uh oh...damp patch under the Freelander

fatblokexl · Feb 27, 2012

i went out tonight and noticed a damp patch under the car. on further examination i can trace it back to a dangling rubber hose tucked away at the back of the engine bay running down the bulkhead.

i am hoping the pipe/tube/hose is just a drain for the scuttle panel or something.

can anyone confirm this?

Does this hose have a flap on the end of it?

you will find it the pipe from your heater nothing to worry about it does this after heater or air cons been on

Freelaner, not that i can see.
Rhodie it could be the that as its in the same location. heater is always on and i turned it off as i parked tonight so makes sense

Hes got a 1.8 petrol, so no fbh.

If it's got a flap on it it'll be a drain.

i bet it ****ed itself at your driveing

Probably haha

100% its the air con drain thing. it comes on anyway wether you depress the switch. Its in the manual too.

Nobody has used the word 'condensation' yet.

Yes - it'll be from the air-con - from the condensation trap in the heat exchanger.

Time to worry is if it doesn't drip out the pipe - if it blocks then you get wet carpets.
