Hi all.

Yesterday whilst driving around, I heard the sound of water sloshing behind the dashboard.

Now I have heard this sound before on a previous car and it was due to not being able to drain the excess condensation from the evaporator and it all built up behind the dash until it started to leak into the footwells.

When I eventually found the drain pipe on the car and I unblocked it, (full of old grass and leaves??) the contents poured out under some considerable pressure for the best part of a minute!

My question here is, where is the drain pipe for the A/C on SLKs and is it easy to check for blockages?

I look forward to your responses.

Cheers,
Dan.
