in the post you said the tube was pulled away and you secured it. How did you secure it and where? Did you have to lift the carpet? Remove the dash? Remove trim? Or did you go up under the car? Any help appreciated. I have this exact issue and I really don’t want to spend hundreds of $$ if it’s a simple fix.

The condensation drain tube does not have a clamp. it is a rubber tube that just fits snug over the nipple. Moving the carpet behind the center of the dash and you can see it.

ok. Great. Here is what I’m seeing. Is the tube clear?

That is not the tube for the condensation. On the engine side of the firewall you will see a black, rubber tube. This is the drain for the evaporator condensation. I just estimated where on the other side it would be and moved the rug. The only thing I removed was the black plastic shield under the glove box side of the dash. Hope this helps.

The tube you are looking at might be the drain tube for the sunroof.. Not 100% sure though.
