Water Leak!
Today, while driving, I noticed that the floormat on the front passenger side was wet. I stopped shortly there after to find out why my floorboard had water standing in it. I immediately removed the water and later while driving I noticed that water appeared to be leaking out from the dash compartment directly below the glove compartment. Initial thoughts are that maybe my AC condensation duct is clogged?? Does anyone what may be causing this and how I can fix it??

is your window cracked at all?????
water can get in if it is. happend in my old car.
lift up the carpet and sit in your car and have someone spray down your car with water, 1 section at a time and try and find out where its comming from.

Definateley check haeter core and condensate drain, they are the most possible causes. Then check all the little things like door and window seals and give the firewall a good check. sometimes I get a dripdown the inside of my drivers window during heavy storms, but only 1 or 2 drops

i have been having that problem for the past two months. the passenger side gets soaked and the water leaks from the heater core, especially when making turns. i take my car to mitsubishi every single week to have it fixed. first they told me it was the A/C clutch, then it was because my pipes were clogged, then they said that it was my belt, but no matter what i do the dumb asses at mitsubishi can't fix this problem. i take it to them, it works for about a half a day and then blows out again. i hate mitsubishi services!!!!! i only go to them becasue its under warrenty.

If you don't let mitsu do your oil change, most places (i.e. Jiffy Lube) will not bother to clean the drain out for you. I'd almost bet a paycheck that is your problem. Knock the crud out of the drain, and everything will function just fine.
