I hear water slushing in the dash, carpets soaked.

I've cleaned the W/S shroud area from leaves (hood open) but "Need Help" steps to clear the A/C evaporator drain

Get underneath and poke string from a weed-whacker into the A/C drain to clear it.

You can try and remove the kick panel and then disassemble the vent assembly, but that's a tough job.

It would be easier to do it fron the bottom of the car. Use the jack and jack up the car, secure the car with a jack stand or some wood (2x4s or 2x6s). slide under and look for the water drain hole and clear it.

Park with two wheels on the same side on the sidewalk and crawl down the gutter. Wear some old clothes.

Is the drain on the passenger or driver side? Near the engine or by the door?

Thanks.

Thanks.

I'd start on the passenger side, near the engine( trans ). Some cars have two hoses, I'm not sure about the CTS
