My P38 has started draining water from the N/S sill, it appears to be from a drain hole below the rear door. I have seen this twice today after parking the car & I suspect it may be related to the aircon vent. I get a small puddle under the drivers side vent, I don't get one under the passenger side vent and my passenger footwell carpet is damp (water only). I tried probing the vent from underneath but nothing came out. Is it possible the aircon water is somehow getting into the sill area and draining from there? Alternatively, could this be the sunroof vent?

Front sunroof drain comes out behind O/S front wheel, rear sunroof drain comes out at front of N/S rear wheel.

Sorry about the thread resurrection!

I have the same issue just started with my car, it hasnt rained for ages so I dont think it is anything to do with sunroof drains. The overflow from the header tank is bone dry and the water level not dropping so I dont think it is coolant. Any suggestions re what the problem is? Where should aircon condensate go?

Cheers

On to the floor. That is what it will be. If you are not losing coolant and using aircon don't worry about it
