I have noticed that some water is getting into passanger side when the AC is on (its a clear liquid so its not the heater core). I have done several searches and it seems like its the AC drain that might be clogged but for some reason when I search in this forums I keep getting an error. After googling the issue, it seems to be a common issue for this vehicle; anybody has a link i could read? Your help is greatly appreciated.

 

I dont have a link, but the majority are 06 and 07 that get clogged. My 08 has never leaked

What many will do is grab a long needles nose or screw driver and reach in between the back of the engine and the firewall. The grommet is just above the transmission

Here a video

 

I was finally able to search the forums and was able to find some information on it. Im going to attempt to do this without talking anything off as I have skinny hands and writs ( finally they are good for something)...so since my gs300 is awd, the grommet is located in the driver side, correct? Its between the 3rd and 4th bolt from the front on the transmission?

 

Yup follow the video, he has an awd aswell. He shows you exactly where it is located and how to reach it and remove it.

 

Greatly appreciate that YouTube video!!!

 

Eureka, I was able to take off the grommet using a pick. It is doable if you have small writs and forearms.

 

ibidu 1, thanks once again for the information, you are awesome man, have a great rest of the day.

 

Awesome, glad to see u removed it! how long did it take you to remove it?

 

Roughly an hour....persistence and patience pays off. My hands and forearms are scrapped and I woke up sore from my neck but knowing I was able to fix it, priceless....

 

After all day use, im happy to report that the water stopped dripping in the cabin. How many drains are there for this car? So far, I have cleaned the sunroof top drains, and the drain behind the front passanger wheel, Moreover, while under the car, I noticed the lower front right passanger ball joint needs to be replaced luckily, the design of it doesn't look to bad to change...
