Does anyone of you see that? I realize that whenever my AC is on, there's water dripping underneath. Is that normal? There are ppl saying it is, some say it's not. Personally, I think it's dripping a little more than normal, but what do I know. I'll have it in my dealer tomorrow to put on the guards and I'll ask them; but just wanted to see if y'all think it's normal.

I asked when I first got the truck, since it seemed to have a lot more condensation than any other truck I've owned. For the first 10-15 mins after I shut the truck off after running the A/C, I'll hear noises like cold water being dripped onto a hot frying pan - sizzling noises. Then the condensation will pool somewhere under the truck - some drips off onto the driveway, the rest will pour out when I back out of the driveway the next morning (I park on a hill). Is that what you're talking about?

I realized it when it left the engine runs with AC on and went around on the passenger side's front wheel to look under. It's constantly dripping. It's good to hear that's normal.

gee, lets figure this out,
Humidity+Air Conditioning=Condensation
that what A/C's do thats there job, removing moisture from the air.
the "sizzling sound is the system Equalizing pressure.

Your question was not out of line. My H2 A/C drips more water than any vehicle I have ever owned.

When I stop at the track to get my inspections for racing, I often get asked if there is something wrong with my H2.

The unit just puts out a lot of condensate that is shown on the passenger side when running.

Yep, lots of water.... Much more than any vehicle I've seen.
