Water Dripping? Help Plz


alrite in the pictures below i pointed out a whole where water is coming out....well the water is dripping out on the exhaust, end of the exhaust manifold, and the cats i believe. does anyone else have this problem? every time i shut up of the car is sounds lik shit. everyone says its over heating but i know its the water dripping from there.
should water be dripping from there? if not how do i stop it? or if it is how can i stop that embarassing sound =/. not to mention it helps out with rusting which isnt good


[/list]the yellow is where its dripping

the red arrow points to the evaporator drain. If you have coolant coming from there, it's heater core time. a simple pressure test of the cooling sstem should verify this. If it's clear, it might also be condensation from the ac evaporator. To keep it from dripping directly on the exhaust, fab a small shield and divert it away from the exhaust

it isnt harmful to drip... all cars with a/c do it when a/c has been on, how is it embarassing?

mine steams off the exhaust too. it drips onto my collector pipe on the long tubes and steams off making a loud steaming sound. it only does this for a few minutes then it is done draining. it is normal
