  3. My friend has a Honda Civic and when he has had the air con. on, it leaves a
    pool of water on his drive
    which I believe is normal.

    Hmm, aircon must be rare if you haven't seen this before. Yep, pretty common,
    especially on a humid day. The air con condenses the moisture out of the air
    and the condensate drains under the car. If you don't keep the drains clear,
    you'll end up with wet carpets.
