Totally normal, its just condensation. If you have a puddle under the car when you don't use the air con, then be worried.

Quite Normal for air con drain to drip.

Just make sure it is the air con condensate drain (which is pure water) and not a coolant leak.

Hope this helps.

As many have said before on this forum, remember to use the air con often to ensure that the seals etc are well lubricated by the gas etc.

Air conditioners are very efficient dehumidifiers. That humidity (moisture) has to go somewhere when it's removed from the air. In Hong Kong back in the 70's, we used to collect it in large containers and use it to clean the balcony - hot humid climates contain surprising amounts of moisture.

Anyway, as others have pointed out, it'll pretty much always be in the same place under the car. Just check occasionally that it is just clean water and that it only appears after the aircon has been in use.
