TMedge01 Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) I have a 2011 Ford Edge Limited Just noticed water coming in the passenger side around the fan area when specifically making a left and turn. There's a swish sound when making a left hand turn...almost sounds like air being forced through the system then the water comes out. I recently installed a K&N Cold Air intake system and had not noticed this issue previously ..although it could have existed. Any one experience this before either in general or after installing a cold air intake system? Is it clogged lines or censors causing the water build up and discharge?

akirby Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Could be the sunroof drain or the A/C evaporator drain clogged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMedge01 Posted October 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 thanks .. I'm stumped and not convinced the cold air intake is to blame although the swishing of air is suspect since the cold air intake filter is pointing to the left and the swishing / discharge of water occurs only on left hand turns. Is the a/c evap drain easy to service myself or is a dealer needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 You should be able to see the drain line from underneath and see if it's clogged. You might need some compressed air to blow it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMedge01 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 brought it to the Ford dealer this morning.. it was the clogged AC line. $52 dollars later an I'm good, Tks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWWPerfA_ZN0W Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 A good DIY service yearly or biennially? Point to ponder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
