Default volvo s40

Hello,
I am having my condenser replaced in my s40 at the Volvo dealership.
I have an existing problem with leaking in my rear floor and I believe this is due to an A.C. drain pipe fitting.Is this part of the job included with the replacement of the condenser? If not any idea what it may cost to have this fixed? Can anyone help with some information?
Thanks
LarryGM

Rear floor? That sounds like a blocked sunroof water drain. You have 4 drains, one at each corner that run down the A pillars and C pillars, behind the plastic. They get clogged and water backs up into the car floor. Do you park outside?

The drain for the condenser is up front so I would suspect the front floor to get wet if that was the problem. Is the front wet also?

Thanks I'll have them check the evaporator! the amount of water that came flowing out both rear floor vents was surprising
Thank- you for your reply.
