Yeah take a look under there and find out where on the climate control box the water is leaking out of. Could be just the Evaporator drain hose had fallen off. You wouldn't believe the amount of water the A/C squeezes out of the air.....

common prob w/ c5's, there's a drain behind the pass. side head on the firewall that clogs, cut the opening a little larger and that should keep it from clogging in the future

Clean out the little udders on the firewall, you'll be shocked at how much crap you'll get out of them!

It's not normal. Check the above items before it gets worse and you have water on your carpets and into electrical components.

Default clogged drain

My 2000 is doing the same thing (leaking water) on the passenger side. Where is the drain/hose located and what should I look for? I located the two utters on the drivers side under the hood behinf the wheel well. What is the purpose of the utters? Thanks.

Do a search and you will find it. I was looking at some detailed photos someone took while unclogging the drain.
