98 Accord: Source of water dripping outside of car??
Hi all. I have a 1998 Accord, 6-cyl, auto, w/ moon roof. Recently I have noticed clear water dripping from just in front of the drivers side front tire. Just forward of the whell well. I am used to seeing AC condensate dripping, but this is on the wrong side... right? Also, i noticed it was still dripping two days after I had last driven the car. It has not rained in several weeks. What could be partially clogged allowing a sloooooow drain? The moon roof does not drain there.. Right? Where does the fresh air vent drain? So far this has not developed into any other issue, just weird. It is a very slow drip. Just enough to dampen the concrete.
Thanks.

Is the windshield-washer fluid tank up there?? (I don't remember which side it's on)
The ventilation cowling drains would be back near the firewall, not FORWARD of the front wheels.
I think the sunroof drains empty out into the front wheel well, but on the aft side kinda near the front door hinges.

On my 03, the moonroof drains near all four wheel wells. The water has to have more than one place to drain, or if the car was leaning away from the drain it would overflow into the car. I just had to have my headliner reupholstered, and there are four hoses draining from the moonroof. One at each corner. They drain at the rear of the front wheels, and in front of the rear wheels. Run a water hose on the moonroof, and see what happens. Or you can open the glass, and pour the water straight into the drain channels.
