I think you're probably right about the firewall location. That seems about where it drains from on other cars I've had.
I guess if I don't see any sign of draining I'd better get it checked out. If there's stagnant water sitting in there someplace that wouldn't be healthy!
Ugly Green stuff might start growing. (And I don't mean Broccoli)
Poor little HHR might need a "Cystoscopy"!! OUCH!!

Cystoscopy! Ouch is right! The drain appears to be on the passenger side firewall. I can't see in there that well, but appears to be "the" spot.

He said he never really paid any particular attention to it, but didn't recall seeing any drainage either. He told me he'd try to remember to look after he went home last night and give me a call. I haven't heard anything from him, naturally!!
Well, I checked!! Not a drop of water did I see Guess I'd better get that looked into next week !!

I figure that's the way it should be. Dripping out all the time and leaving a little puddle wherever you stop for a minute or so.
Wonder if this has anything to do with the sloshing sound up front that I've read about some people having ??

My HHR does it's thing when hot outside,humid with A/C on. Leaves a trail down the driveway when backing out, soo, it does as designed. Pee's like the Astro, the Monte, the Impala, and all others. Hate it when it can't pee, makes a mess.(really)

Now that has to be one of the funniest posts on this whole thread. That and the one about house training the HHR.
