Air con drain hole - where does it drain to?

Hi,

I've got a bit of a wet driver footwell. I don't know if it is caused by the recent heavy rains, or, if it is the air con drain?

The air con drain is not clogged and does not have a kink. When circulating air on "econ" mode, a steady stream of air blows through nicely. The pollen filter was recently changed as well and looked fine (I saw the old part, so they actually did it!).

So the air con drain is not blocked.

But, where does this air con drain, actually drain moisture to? Sticking my fingers through the hole where the air con drain sits, all I can feel is some form of plastic or fibre glass. I think that it might actually be draining inside the car?

Some of Matt's pics may help with the understanding. http://www.sportsmaserati.co.uk/sho...lean-out-pollen-filter?highlight=aircon+drain

Be grateful for you advice

And can happily drip down the exhaust heat shield which can cause much panic amongst the non-cognoscenti while in France.

Don't ask me how I know ;)
