My DiL reported yesterday that the carpet in the passenger footwell of the Yaris was wet. I had a look, and the liquid appeared to be coming from an area below the dashboard.
My first thought was that it might be coming from the heater matrix; however, there was no smell to the liquid and there was no loss of fluid from the coolant reservoir. The car had been in a few days earlier to have its aircon serviced - apparently this hadn't been working for a while. My thoughts now are that the 'water' in the footwell is the result of condensed water from the aircon being prevented from escaping because of a blockage somewhere?
Anyone got any ideas about this? A couple of other clues - the water has been noticed since the aircon was worked on, and there hasn't been sufficient rain during this period to test a bad rain-seal.
