Water leaks can be a pita, even with a hose pipe, one tip that I've found useful is to sprinkle a bit of talcum powder in any suspect areas, the water leaves a very distinct track in the powder

yeah - that was going to be my next plan - think it is the rear screen leak again though.
It has been munching bulbs and with the nose down position it runs onto the boot carpet - some soaking through the rest running along there- under the rear seats - along the floor and down to the footwell. wheel well is holding a drop at the moment - and it has been parked nose up for a few days.. typically not had enough rain recently to properly trace it through! |
well after a nice big downpour i discovered i fixed the leak into the boot - but once more i have a rather wet footwell - the annoying thing is that i am going to be away from the car and it is left outside now for the next week or so...
After reading stamford's post i think i am going to have to do a temp bodge and tape the sunroof shut to see if that is the source of the leak - dont think i am going to have much more time than that on the weekends to trouble shoot.... at least if i know where it is leaking i can then try to work out how to clear it - not having access to and airline though is going to make things a bit tougher i think :( |
When I was fitting my new wipers, I noticed that a large grommet had popped out of the bulkhead, behind the fuse box.
Looks like it will need the fuse box out to fix it. Would be a easy route for the water to get in. :-D:-D |
fuse box is the wrong side tho isn't it... drivers footwell is getting wet not the passenger... and now the car is parked almost flat (slightly nose up if anything)
