Water drains into the passenger side

I have a 2001 eclipse spyder gt, and when it rains, water will pour into the passenger side of the car, and leave puddles of water both in the front and back. i dont know much about cars, but heard that this occurs when the AC drain is clogged. does anyone know if this is true, and where the drain is so i can fix it?

SOURCE: mitsubishi eclipse convertiable timing belt change?

Typical timing belt intervals are every 60k miles. It's a very involved service to do the whole job - timing belt, timing belt tensioner, serpentine or accessory belts, water pump, thermostat, spark plugs, all fluids, all filters, brake and suspension inspection, and tire rotation. On many cars it's recommended to change the oxygen sensors as well. Quite a bit of this can be done when you want, but the first five items are critical and should all be done. And regardless of whether your manufacturer says the coolant is "lifetime", replace it - don't reuse coolant. It's cheap and it's good practice to use new coolant.

SOURCE: water leak on fwd passenger side after every rain storm

If your car has a sunroof, there are drains from the front corners of the sunroof, and they drain down the sides of the windshield pillars, and then empty out on the ground.

What I would do is open the surnroof, and pour water into the front corners, and then oobserve where the water drains out. If you have a difference in water drainage between the left and the right sides, I would think that you may have loose sunroof drain. They commonly come loose at the sunroof corners. This will allow the water to pass down the windshield pillar, and onto the floor.

Also, I would check the condensate drain tube for blockage. Pull back the carpet, under the glove box, and fins a black hose that pokes thru the firewall. Pull it out, and see if it is blocked internally. If this tube is clogged, water will build up in the heater box, as the black tube is the drain for the heater box.

One of the two above solutions will cure your problem. I see both quite often.

Thanks for choosing FixYa for assistance.

How do I find the drain pan for the air conditioner in my 2003 mitsubishi spyder eclipse

Sounds like you have a blocked drain hose that drains the water that runs down your windshield when it rains or you get a carwash. Look under the car right in-line with the bottom of the windshield on the passenger side, you should see a little drainage hole. Stick a coat hanger up the tube to unblock the drainage tube.

2002 Mitsubishi Galant I am getting water accumilating on the passenger side floor board only when it rains. I can't find the leak....also water now travels from front to back passenger floor board....

It sounds as if the drain line from the vent is plugged. You'll need to get under the car (jack stands please ) to locate. In your forward vent where air comes in for your AC or just Vent rain will obviously get in to it. There is a drain hole at the bottom of this to allow water to flow out. With time from dead bugs, leaves, road dirt... this vent can plug. Under the car locate this vent line, place a small wire up within it to remove the blockage. After doing you may want to both test and flush by use of a garden hose. If there is a lot of accumulated debris it might plug back right away and you'll have to clear again.
I hope this may have helped,
Tom

The driver side floor matt gets wet every day, when the ac is on or it rains a lott

I had the same problem not long ago on the driver side when it rained. It turned out that there was a leak where the wiring harness comes in through the driver side of the car. To make sure this is where the leak is coming from you'll have to find where the wiring harness comes inside your car and watch it while someone pours water over your drivers side fender and you'll see the water streaming in pretty good. The best way to fix it is to remove the driver side fender so you can get to the rubber boot that seals the hole and remove it, clean it, apply RTV around the hole, replace the boot and apply more sealant around the outside. Also check where the wires go through the boot itself, you should probably go ahead a apply some extra electrical tape there just in case.
Of Course you'll also need to take the carpet out of your car and clean and dry it well.
