Does people actually use A/C with the top down? I can truthfully say I used the heater with the top down in Germany while it was snowing but I don't ever remember using A/C with top down.

Just had this happen to me today. Goes away when I turn the A/C off. Is it a clogged or disconnected drain line or a "normal" occurrence that I shouldn't worry about??

Otherwise top down in the hot southern sun is unbearable, I need air conditioned seats like in a Mercedes.

Mostly likely your AC drain tube needs cleaning as well as the exit from the AC condensation tray. You'll find the hose by pulling back the carpet on the passenger side near the left front. The condensation collection tray isn't draining fast enough.

I'll look into that, thanks.
