Default Driver Side Floor wet any suggestions

I have a 98 gs 400. Today I noticed that my driver side floor was really wet. I pulled up the carpet and found that the base was filled up with water. So I turned the car on and popped the hood and the A/C pipes were dripping, and the water under the car on the concrete was quite a huge puddle. Does anyone have any Idea whats going on, or is it normal for the A/C pipes on the engine to drip a little.

possible causes to investigate:

-evap system problems
-leaking/disconnected hoses
-heater core (if the heat isn't working too well and you have coolant inside the car)

You might want to check for junk building up where your ac filter is...if that box gets clogged with junk. The moisture or condensation build up may not be flowing properly through the vent, which is a small tube where the water drips out of (hence the water that drips from the bottom of your car). 9/10 that will correct that problem.

your cabin air filter will not cause buildup of moisture. You're on the right track with the drainage tube though. numerous members have reported problems with sediment clogging up the drain tube thus causing a backup and possible dropping water into the cabin.

most of those members have just located the drain tube and stuck the end of a coat hanger or something up there to try and free whatever may be blocking it.
