Dam car what next??

so the cl has decieded to stop blowing heat in to the cabin , It must be an electrical issue , sometimes it will deliver heat, more offten than not it doesnt. at least i have heated seats!!! But when it rains like an inch per hour and your crusin down tha road and the windows fog up , its hell tryin to defog them, i have to put on the a/c and it gets really cold! it is bad enough that the rear defog doesnt work on my ride it has some serious electric problems i think ?? plus on a hot day when the a/c is on i get a constant drip on to the passenger side floor bord :'( , then the car smells musty
what next? the cl seems to be one problem after another

Sounds like your heater core and/or condersor is out by the sound of the heat not working and the floorboard drip.

my sisters old 740 used to do that. and we had to change the thermostat
and the heater core. ^^ and the thing about the condenser, I had that prob when I first got my integra. It wasn't too expensive, and not too difficult of a fix. don't know how it will be for the CL tho.

as for the drip, i had that problem over the summer (it's hot here in GA mid-July)... i did a search back then found this:

"The front passenger side floor is soaked. I thought that there was a bit of condensation coming down from the air conditioning, but this is nuts. I was stopped at a light on the way in to work and took a left turn and heard a bit of a hissing sound, and noticed a lot of (what I assumed to be) water dripping onto the floor from underneath the glove compartment area. Has anyone else had to deal with this? Any help would be appreciated."-nujunglist


"...its usually mud or dirt. The tube is very narrow. So it very easy to clog. Since also it is a narrow tube there will be a lot of water pressure. When my friend found it for me, he said, when I scream pull me out. Pull me out NOW!!! I say ok, he blew with a can of compressed air into the tube and screamed out NOW NOW NOW NOW. I pulled him out and I was like OMG thats a fuking lot of water. It was like waterfall under my car and made a puddle that pretty much surrounded most of the car." -fusionnv

now i didn't use the compressed air. rather, i just ran a rather thick piece of rubber-coated wire up the tube (so as not to puncture it) and about 2 gallons of water poured out all over the place. but it worked. i havent' had wet feet in about 4 months.
