Everytime I take the QP out of the garage (I've been using it daily) there is a small puddle/pool of water under the middle of the car. Only a small amount but is this normal? Spoke with a tech over the phone and they said it may be the airconditioning drain?

I've put my finger in the water and its clear with no smell so possibly not coming from the cooling system?

any idea's?

Yes it is just the condensation that builds up on the A/C. It will be more noticable in a humid climate.

Its funny that I've never seen that with my two other cars (Alfa's)?

I haven't notice that on my GS yet, probably because I always leave the windows open to listen to the exhaust, but it always happened with my last BMW.

Both my Alfa 164's use to always get a puddle of water under them after the using the A/C on hot days. I always notice a small puddle under the Maserati when I run it.

Do you spend a lot of time in Brazil (just wondering with your username)?

It isn't supposed to do this indoors, but you'll have to train it. A gentle tap on the front cowling if you catch it in the act of dripping on the floor. The most important thing is to take it out for at least a morning drive and an afternoon drive, and it will learn to drip outside instead of inside. Plus, sometimes this type of behavior is indicative of a need for more exercise.

I'm brazilian, borned and raised in Niteroi. Have you been there?

I must have spent over 2 years in Brasil initially student placement near SP. My wife is Brasilian, she's from Manaus. Did you know Felipe Massa had a QP as his wedding car? Visited Niteroi several times(taking the ferry from Praca XV), the views from the MAC museum are fantastic.
