Hi all, wife and I are on our way to a funeral and my wife just noticed what appears to be water dripping from under the glove box. I went through a car wash earlier, but the liquid doesn't have a smell. Coolant gauge is holding steady temperature wise. I'd pull over to look, but we're running late. Any ideas? Thanks.

Rinse water from the carwash coming through the windshield or condensation backing up from a/c

If you have a sunroof, the drains can clog. The typical place of water entry on clogged drains is the passenger side A-pillar which will eventually lead to the passenger floor. Could also be a bad windshield seal, but the location has me to believe it's the sunroof drains.

I'm going to say a/c drain. Mine clogs up almost every summer. If not that then sunroof drains if you have a sunroof.

I would say a/c line condensation.
