Wet carpet on the drivers side floor
2006 Base, and changed the A/C condenser because it was damaged by a thrown rock. A/C works great now, but noticed that the carpet under the mat was wet. Seems weird that this has only become an issue after the A/C was fixed. Car is garaged, and when the A/C runs you can see the condensation drip under the car like it should.
Suggestions?

Water leaks on driver side will not come from passenger side so you can dismiss the ac. Water will not trave over the center hump.
So its most likely from left side or the trunk.
Left side could be windshield or back glass leaks or sun roof draines or door seals.
The trunk is higher than the passenger area and under the right circumstances the water will flow down into the passenger area. Trunk includes sun roof drains or tail light gaskets.
Pull up the trunk carpeting and see if its wet; passenger area behind driver? If both are wet then it's definitely from trunk. This is more common than you think.
To find the tail light leak just run water around the tail lights while another person is watching inside the trunk.

My wife's MDX did this and it took a long time to figure out. I thought it was the sunroof drain plugs as that is a likely culprit but it ended up being a leak from the windshield on the driver's side.
01acls gives a lot of good ideas to try.
