A/C water drain hose
« on: 24 June 2008, 18:57:09 »

Where is it, i donīt find it.
Even if i use A/C for 15 minutes on my garage, i donīt see any water anywhere under my car.
Is it common on these to be blocked or does it drop itīs water over exhaust or something?

It can drop onto the floor, as far as I recall....  Could simply be onto the engine/gearbox block and evaporating - or your weather is particularly dry at the moment!

Where is that pipe located under the car.?

Could it be tested if i connect a hose to it and blow hard, i suppose that it should go straight to aircon unit?

And no to dry , weather is pretty moist now...

I found two hoses under the car, left one is longer, and right one is just 2 or 3 cm long.
When engine is running and AC on it blows cold air through these so i presume that these aint blocked? Is it working correctly?

Iīm thinking that i may have an faulty hbv because my heater matrix gets pretty hot even when ac is set to low.
My car has extra pump in heater pipe, i thought that i could unplug it in summer so that it doesnt heat up so much, has anybody ever tested it unplugged?

And one question more. Where is that mixer flap located so i could make sure that it operates correctly?

Okay, changed that HBV yesterday, Now those matrix pipes wonīt get so hot anymore.  
Old oneīs part number is 90 566 947 and new one 90 457 649.
I noticed that when i had those both in my hands. Only difference i found was in that valve what moves up and down.

My epc tells that 649 one is for finland,norway and sweden.

Thats weird, cant think why they would have a different HBV code for colder climbs.
