Default 2002 A8L - A/C water drain Plugged

Have recently heard water sloshing behind centre air vents and is now sending out water drops when fan starts working. Is there a way to find out why this is as I do not want the build up to overflow and mess up the electrics. The A/C drain which usually leaves water on the roadway does not appear to be leaving water after a journey and then parking. This is what leads me to think that it is either plugges or has come unattached.
Any help would be appreciated.
Keith

Open your hood, take flashlight and look around your heater/ac box if you see a water standing
on the bottom. It may happen after you went through a car wash. Then get under the car and locate two rubber hoses with flattened ends, one on each side of the heater/ac box. You can try to open the flat end by squeezing or trying to blow compressed air into them with an extended air nozzle. Protect yourself, the collected water and dirt may fall right on your face. After you cleared the main blockage you may try to flush down the rest of dirt from the top, around your heater/ac box with a water hose or pressure washer. If the there are some larger particles it may be necessary to remove them physically by other means, maybe even remove the heater box to gain access. Hope this will help.
