Most likely a plugged up heater core.

Was this a white wine glass, a red wine glass or a champagne flute? We need specifics in order to diagnose.  |

It must be condensation from somewhere if it is clean water. Were you running the A/C? One of them Lindsay guys will school us. |

I think I have a clogged hose somewhere.I'll do the HVAC check list later today.Could be several things including a clogged cabin filter.  |

The fan housing is filled with water,so condensation is the culprit.I wil drive the car without the AC today and see what happens,hopefully one of the Lindsey guys will chime in tonight. |

Sorry not a lindsay guy. I had this happen on a Trans am. It was a drain line that lets the condensed water out of some part of the unit. My friend blew out a drain line with compressed air and it worked great. It was behind the front wheel under the passenger door. Hope this helps! |

Hopefully they assessed the areas to make sure no mould is growing under your dash too. | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
