Mysterious wet patch under car

[HassanZ]

Hi all,

 

Everyday when I look out of my window, I would notice a wet patch under my car near the front left (passenger side) wheel.

 

I always thought it's probably rain water which hasn't dried in that area. Today it didn't rain at all so now it has began to worry me!

 

I've seen this nearly everyday but it's just striked me that is not normal....

 

I've attached a photo for you to look at, the photo is very blurry as I've taken it through my front room window:

 

 

Many thanks,

Hassan

for defo,

 

mine does it. its the condensation there is a little hole in the underside of the car for the water to run out of

Is that normal!??

 

Does it need to be rectified?

 

Am I losing gas?

[magic84]

it's very normal, all it is, is the condenstion from the compresser. your not loseing any gas

if you've ever owned a previous car with aircon you'll have had the same thing too

Phew! Nothing to worry about then!

 

Thanks guys you all just put my mind at rest, I really appreciate it

 

I was getting really worried and one quick post just solved my mystery

 

I used to have a BMW 330ci M sport with aircon, never noticed it on that. But then I hardly used to use it as I didn't have the reason to. In the Zed I use it to smooth out the idle

 

I'm guessing this condensation occurs only when you use the a/c?

I should hope so.......unless your engine runs cold enough to generate condensation
