[alfa] re: AC leaking water inside the MIlano

[doug sedon <sedond@xxxxxxxxx>]

gilles, this is a common issue w/milanos - there is a
drain pipe which does get easily clogged.  if you get
under the dash from the drivers' side & root around
under the center console, you will find it attached to
the curved plastic housing which encases the hvac
unit.  pull it off & ram it out, or use compressed
air.  also clean out the extension from the hvac
housing where the drain hose attaches...

==================================

Hi there,

A few days ago was the first time I had used the AC
for almost two 
hours 
straight while traveling on the freeway, and suddenly
I felt a little 
bit of cold 
water over my right foot which I assumed to be
condensation, however 
while 
enjoying a hard turn to the right on the off ramp
suddenly I got a LOT 
of water 
on both feet (but mostly on the left).

Today with the AC off, while turning a sharp right
turn I got a lot of 
cold 
water again, could this mean that I have a clogged AC
drainage pipe? Or 
perhaps 
a broken drain pipe? The water seems to come from
under the dash behind 
the 
console, has someone run into a similar situation with
the Milano?...
