Hi. I just bought a 1997 CR-V (117K miles) and brought it back to
Georgia from Florida. At the end of the 9 hour drive, I happened to
open the glove box and noticed that an ounce or two of water had
collected in the box. The A/C had been on the whole time, as it's
still warm and humid down here. I assume the water is condensate from
the A/C system under the dash and above the glove box? If so, is there
a drain line somewhere which I need to unplug? Thanks in advance!!

H'mm, ok so if I interpret MentalFusion20's post correctly it means
that this is "normal" for an extended trip in humid conditions with A/
C. Too bad it's not correctable. I guess I'll empty the glove box
next time and try hitting the recirculate button too. Thanks for the
info.
