Default AC problem

2008 528i. Started hearing what sounded almost like water running from vents, but couldn't see any leaks inside or on garage floor. Now getting a musty smell from vents. Car has about 75K miles
Advice/ thoughts/experience with this problem?

Clogged drain? Mine drains down near the auto onto the large underbody cover - often see a puddle.

agreed.

I have never seen it myself, but read enough from others that this is something that needs looked at.

If you don't see water drips on the drive with the AC on then even more likely this is the problem
