Weird leakage, Please Help.... - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

On the way to work I turned a corner kinda fast and all of a sudden my feet got wet. I had the AC on, but thats about all (and it worked fine, no funny noises, only on 1--not full blast). I was already late to work so I couldn't look at the cause in detail, but it appeared to be leaking fom the center consol and then sprayed all over the pedals when I turned the corner hard. I have a '98 with 84000 miles, manual, and this has never hapened.

Has anyone else had this happen? Is it probably just condensation from the AC? Could it be something else? Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks. By the way I tried to search but I don't have time to use multiple words to find what I am looking for (still at work).

did it smell in any way? color?

No smell, Clear liquid, like water.

Has it been raining much by you. Sometime I notice that my seals on my car are shot, for example my hatch leaks water when it rains. But i cannot find where it leakes.

I guess your gonna have to examine it on your lunch break or when you get a chance. Be careful because there are electronics around your feet area.

If it is water (not greasy feeling is it?), I'm like 99% sure it's condensation. With all the rain and humidity all over the country lately, there's plenty of water vapor in the air just waiting for something cold to condense on.

It hasn't been raining but it is very humid here. It isn't greasy at all. I have a feeling it is probably just condensation, but I wanted to check due to see if anyone else has had this problem due to the wires and all thats under there. Thanks guys, I appreciate it!!!
