Panic call from her this afternoon. Somebody has pointed out a 'pool of oil' about a foot across under her car. Sounds serious. Decide to swap cars and give it urgent attention. But half way there she calls to say she is on her way home. So immediately on arrival I'm on the floor but find nothing coming off the sump or block. Or anywhere else. But then something dripped near the bulkhead. So its bonnet up - to find water dripping out of the aircon drain. I casually ask if she has had the aircon running. She claims not to have had it on since last week. Which is strange cos the compressor is running. A quick check and 'oh yes, its on'. She now claims the 'pool' was in a different spot from where the drip came. But she has decided this may be because the car was on a hill. I agree

I agreePlease forgive me if this is a stupid question: Is the air con meant to drip anyway??!
