Default condensation from passenger rear

is this a normal place for water to form,

just to note, that the mud is wet from the condensation and not from rain/puddles(and yes I know it needs a bath)

behind rear passenger tire

I figured it is, but just thought I would check

The large line is the cold line so it does get condensation on it. What you want to keep an eye out for is oil coming down the side of the h-valve which is the part the curved lines connect to. Moisture gets between the valve and the mounting on the other side and it starts to corrode and eventually pushes the valve away from the evaperator enough it starts to leak.

very good, thanks

the large line is the bottom line in these pictures, only ask cause they both have condensation on them,

also well be keeping any eye out for the oil, and I assume when/if it corrodes my AC will not be as cold, is this the place where they extended the Ac condenser warranty till 70,000miles?

anything I can do to help prevent the corrosion, keep it cleaner

Thanks again
