Liquid sound in dash

Does anyone else hear liquid moving around behind their dash? It almost sounds like its right behind the stereo.

There was a very old thread on this and I forgot the reason. Someone explained what it was and said that there was something you could do to minimize the sound. I hear mine "burbling" when I step on the gas in nuetral.

Might be water rushing through the heater core.

i think DCFC3 is correct, i had a crx and when i ran my ac it did not drain all the way and the water got trapped in the coil and if i made a big turn it would drain on the floor . they fixed it by putting a double drain hose on the ac.

I used to hear that burbling when I step on the gas, but now I just hear something in the dashboard that sounds like water splashing/shifting to a different place.
