Water dripping when parking

Hello Guys,

Is it normal that water is dripping every time I park? Upon checking its a water, not oil, possibly from A/C? Is there something that is broken when it keeps on dripping?

Are you using the A/C. More than likely from the A/C as it will be the condensate and is very normal.

Front left. AC condensate. It drops onto the chassis rail and can drop in s couple locations. If a Kakadu or rear air car it can happen at rear right as well.
If running fridge console it can also rarely drip in centre around handbrake lever.

Water dripping is normal from the a/c, if you don't see water after a drive with the a/c on then you have a blocked over flow which you will need to unblock or it will back up in behind the dash and maybe inside the car.

That looks a lot. Agree - would try a decent run without the air con on for a good period of time...

110% can guarantee it is the air conditioning condensation and completely normal. I come from Alice where there is no humidity usually. We had a run of humid weather and I noticed the dripping, freaked out thinking the car was ruined and went into full investigation mode. I even tasted the water...
I also get a small amount dripping off the driver's rear mud-flap too.
I'm currently in Darwin and under my car looks like a swimming pool after stopping.

^^^ as above said. Completely normal for all cars not just prado.

2016 build Prado GXL and the rear a/c drips from the drivers rear mudflap. Very disconcerting when first found!
