That is quite normal. It’s the water draining out as the A/C takes moisture out of the air, and there’s a drain for that purpose. You would have a problem if you didn’t see it on hot days.

Figured it was normal, goes like a race horse though and never saw that in any of my other cars before.

Some people say its bad for the car and some people say it doesn't hurt the car.. hmm???

Yes, very common. Pretty sure every car with AC will do that, especially if it's extremely humid outside, serious condensation!!

thanks for the replies, i guess im the only one with this annoying issue.
Are using Auto? If so, it is supposed to go full blast when turned on. Again, RTFM.
