There's a leak that comes from my car after I've been running AC for a while. I opened the hood and the leak is coming from a tube from the engine bay. Close to the rear and underneath all the AC components. Anyone know what it is? The tube seems to be cut.

Could be a/c condensation drip tube...........a pic is worth 1000 words.

Definitely sounds like the drip tube. If it's shaped like someone's manhood after they've been rejected, it's the drip tube.

Anything over two shakes is playing with it. AND, it's supposed to drip. This is one of those drips you don't want the doctor to fix...

Somebody stop me....

It looks like a bent manicotti noodle XD why does it leak exactly? Haha I'm a noobzor

It's similar to the condensation that forms and drips on/from a cold can of beer.......7th grade earth science. LOL

Like everyone else is saying, just condensation from your A/C. Don't worry, I nearly have a heart attack every time I use my A/C, I just drive with my windows open, but if there's someone else in the Jeep, they always whine about just turning the A/C on.

May be something wrong with your '00, is the carpet wet on the passenger side? All vehicles with properly functioning a/c form/drip condensation.

Yeah, if you use AC and your tube DOESNT leak, there is something wrong. Every car on the planet that has and uses the AC drips from condensation. I just took apart my entire heater box and there was a TON of s**t in that box, and the drop tube could easy become plugged, in which case youd have some backup which could probably lead to other problems. Take something like a piece of wire and feed it up in there and wiggle it around and see if you can loosen some hair, dust & debris. You dont need to push it in far, 6" or so would be more than enough.

But how much is too much? AC runs great on mine. Nice and cold. I get a large puddle underneath when I'm idling. It's water, but alot of it.
