water bubbling sound

When I start my car in neutral and step on the gas I hear water swishing around under the hood. Not sure what it is or where its coming from. Any ideas would be helpful, thanks

Have had the same problem since the purchase of my 2003 Altima. After initial morning startup on first couple of accelerations... the sloshing / babbling brook under the dash on the passenger side, more toward the firewall area. I figure, it's the AC Refridgerant getting settled during warm-up. It is common for the AC Compressor to cycle during initial warm-up; to speed up the process. JMHO.

Good Luck.
