A leak?

PEWTERPONY · Jun 9, 2004

This morn when I got out of my car I heard a sizzeling sound. I look under there and this water is gushing out from where the collector is on the exhaust pipe (best I could tell) I did have my defrost on, but not my a/c. What the hell is up with that? I know its just plain old water with nothing else. Theres no color or no smell

Did you taste it?? If you havent drove your car in a while then it would be condensation.

He said water was "gushing" out....lol doesnt sound like condensation to me?

explain gushing a little bit.

Did you have the window defrost on cold?? If you did it's the same as having the A/C on. That would explain the water gushing out and the sizzling sound of it hitting your exhaust.

LOL I thought taste was weird....and i was the only fool that did that.

Water gushing out was a steady trikle of water. Take a glass of water, put your fingers over the lip and pour it out....

Yes the defrost was on cold max

I went and checked it a few minutes after I posted...it wasn't leaking out anymore, so it was probably condensation

wunderground.com (weather underground) indicates the relative humidity in Atlanta today is 94%. Another 6% and the air will become water. It's not surprising that your A/C is extracting a continuous flow of water. looks like both your A/C and evaporator drain are working fine.
