Wet Left Foot
Well, turned a corner a little faster than I should yesterday and a stream of very cold water landed on my left foot.....somewhat strange. Understand there is a condensation problem with the ACs in the 107s and as the insulation breaks down, you get a little leakage in the car....but I thought that problem would be on the right foot, as all the stuff for the AC is in the center console......
Do I have a bigger problem here? 1987 560SL. |

Have you tried blowing out/cleaning out the evaporator drains by the transmission?

I have not done that, but there is condensation dripping from under the car.....maybe not as much as there should be......
Can you tell me how to find the drains? |

The drain tubes are black rubber hoses, around 1/4" to 3/8" diameter that you'll find on both sides of the transmission.

found the drains.
Any suggestions on the best way to clean them out? Shop vac? |

Pull them out (spring clip on the top), soak them in a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water. Flush them out with running water and a bit of weed eater string.

Got it. I pulled the interior side console covers and pulled the 4 drains and cleaned them out. Then took shop vac and vacummed out the drain openings.....LOTS of stuff up in there!
