It's your heater core.

Heater core, and thats not water, its coolant. Unless of course you only have water in your cooling system.

i don't know if u stuck your head under there, but on my old 88 prelude i had the same thing happen. i looked under and a hose that drains my AC outside came disconnected. just plugged it back in and everything was fine. i haven't looked under the glove in my 98GSR so don't kill me if there's nothing under there

there is a hole in the firewall where there should be a big black rubber plug. behind the car battery. check it.

good luck!

Might be heater core if its on the far right.. more closer to the center of the dash..AC possibly.

if it is his heater core and he uses coolant, i think he would be asking what the weird smell is as well.

your ac lines run under the batterry tray through the fire wall into your car, check the evaporator and heater core, do you use antifreeze with water or straight water for coolant, otherwise antifreeze smeel like french cheese

I think it was the AC too..... But usually it leak water in when raining. Also, i don't think it's coolant coz it's just water, maybe from the hole which i ran my 4gauge wire from the firewall. Will it be leaking from the wiper cover? I mean the seam of the platic cover for the wiper motor. Thks alot!!! If it's leaking from the ac hose, how can i fix it? Will it be PITA?
