water dripping from a strange hole


Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'd appreciate your expertise and experience with MK1.

 

I found a puddle underneath after leaving it in a tesco park for about 1/2 hour. I didn't use the A/C at all.

It didn't look or smell like any oil, and I'm almost certain it's more like water.

The photo shows where it comes from -- the little hole on the bottom of the photo. I have a short vid but can't upload it. 

The location is roughly 25cm from the front passenger door side (side-way), and length-way, just behind the front wheel it appears.

This has happened twice, 5 days apart, and in both cases, I didn't switch on the A/C.

 

Should I check the coolant reservoir level? What could be the problem?

 

Thanks in advance!

Could it be the drain hole from the Air Con. My MKIII Vrs leaves the same thing on a warm day.

Thanks for your reassuring message, it's just the puddle is a little alarming, and I didn't use the A/C at all. :sweat:

I'm looking for the AC condensate drain on my MK2. If it can be confirmed that this is indeed the drain hole, that would be great.

 

My next step is to double check my MK2 and shove the air con cleaner and antibacterial spray  tube up there...
