ah ok... though i thought the a/c hose is on the passenger side? and had the a/c on for over an hour yesterday no probs
i will check under the footwells asap though just thought someone else might have had wet feet when turning a corner, doesnt help if barefoot and already slippery during a downpour

Re: wet driver's feet

Not sure if the NB was similarly affected, but I've seen NAs in which, after rain or a wash, water drips down the black plastic panel immeidately to the right of the accelerator pedal. The water subsequently gets under the carpet & soaks the underfelt. Perhaps your right foot is getting wet when it's on the accelerator pedal up against this panel from water that perhaps drips down it.
