Normal or not:
Lately, its been humid in AZ and i'm not accustomed to vehicular behavior in this type of weaher. Today i parked my car and i started to walk away and i noticed a 'sizzling' sound. So i crawled under the car, and it appeared as if the condensation from the AC is hitting some part of the exhaust, and sizzling. Is this normal?

After having lived there for 20 years, I can say that dripping condensation from AC is normal in AZ.

i think he's asking is it normal for the a/c condensation to drip onto the exhaust.
:edit:
mine typically doesn't, but if you were parked on a hill, i suppose it could happen.

As long as it's not dripping on your faulty transmission you shouldn't be too worried...

not normal at all. Your car is going to explode. I would just sell it. I'll buy it from you for 50 bucks as is.
