Dripping water, normal?

these plastic coolant pipes is driving me crazy.. i'm still saving money to get these replaced - but no option but to do it in dealer since i'm also crossing my fingers that we get the class action going (that way - hopefully, get reimbursed)..

anyways, noticed that water drips when car is parked.. i can see water drippings.. is this normal? is this related to the coolant pipes (about to "give problems"?)

it's water (i think) - no smell, no color - hopefully it's water.

If you're running the Automatic mode on the Heat/Air, its probably from the system. Even if running heat, these will run the A/C Compressor...and thus, condensation will drip from the condenser.

Try, wiping the floor clean. Then run the Cayenne for awhile with the system OFF. Park and check.

Cool. No problem...
Glad that's all it was ! For most folks, when the coolant lines go... they GO.
