A/C questions on Corolla

[charlotte]

I have some questions about the Air conditioner.
When I am driving the car without AC (shut off), I feel a little air comeing out of the vents. I also noticed, if I turn the AC on, there is too much water dripping on the ground after I parked the car. How much water dripping is normal? Is there any problems with it? Thanks very much!

the water dripping, form the evaporator box drain hose is condensation,, it's a good sign, that it's working good

also that air you feel coming out is just the wind from the outside. not sure how the vents are done in any car but its just the wind. you can close all the vents by pressing the button that has a picture of car with a circle with an arrow on. Its next to the rear defroster button. If its an 02 Corolla anyway

Air coming through vents is normal, happens to me, I just switch it to the windshield vents nstead of directly at you. Also try switching the switch to let air come from your engine instead of the air outside (there are pictures). And the dripping water is normal, on days that are really really hot, mine drips a lot. On days not so hot, I don't use it much, so it only drips a little. Don't worry, completely normal.
