XK8 wet passenger footwell - can’t find drain pipe

[John579]

Hi, I have a 1996 XK8 and the passenger footwell gets wet...Trying to eliminate all the possibilities... lots of water on the windscreen - no leaks- so I’m trying to find the air conditioning drain pipe - but can’t find it, I’ve taken the centre console out and lifted the carpet (as much as I can..), can’t see it around the radio...... Any suggestions would be very appreciated...

There are two drain tubes for the aircon unit, one either side of the transmission tunnel. probably, the easiest way to locate them is from under the car. If they are not immediately obvious from the drip marks there, run the engine with the aircon switched on to the coldest setting. Condensate should drip from the pipes or pipe if one is blocked.

Thanks Mike, will give this try.
