Default Yes, A/C drips lots o' condensation.

When I come home in the evenings and pull into my garage, I see a little trail of water marking my entrance path all the way up the driveway. Love that Texas heat!

Default Blinker fluid.

Also check the muffler bearings.

Default Don't forget to check the glove box manifold while you are at it!

Default check your windshield washer tank. leaks under the motor and right headlamps...

unless you are in a real humid environment, AC doesn't condense that much water.
