...... behind the drivers seat...on the middle of the floor!!!!

WTF?!!?!?!?!?!? I know we had lots of rain over the last few weeks but FOOOKK, this was a puddle!!! and i have NO idea where it has come from!?!?!?!?

no marks on the ceiling, no others drips or nowt!!!

anyone have ANY ideas where it may have come from?

 

door seal

rear window seat


sit inside and get someoine spray car with hose pipe

 

If its an S2 it came through your battery tray, in under the glovebox and runs into the rear passenger footwell, theres little holes in the seat mountings and all the water collects there.

Get it under cover, or when its dry and take the carpet out the front, pour some water in and see where its coming through and fill it up.

 

ive had this 2

 

your car is soooo quick that you wet yourself

 

seems a bit too far into the car for a window seal!!

but i shall try sitting in the car!!!

oh,,,,,its an S1 by the way!! so probably lots of holes!! oh and no carpet!!!

 

Battery tray or fuse box area
Same with all ERSt's

 

think you mean the same with all mk3 and mk4 escorts

 

granted, i get a small amount in the front corner of the footwell (i'm missing a gromet ) but this puddle was way back, behind the seat, behind the middle floor beam!!

 

keith water will roll to the back ov the car

 

but the beam would stop it!!!!!!!

plus its just been sitting on the drive!!!

 

mark, that's what I meant LOL

Keith, why would it stop it? It has holes in it mate, look closer

It will work it's way backwards, it's lower than the front

 

After crashing my Orion (many years ago) it was parked on a slope at the garage, when I came back the next day the rear drivers side footwell had 2 inches of water in it and I hadnt a clue where it came from, the carpet went all mouldy too. nice!

 

coming in through the rear lights tail etc and running down then under the seat maybe

 

Doubt it very much, it'l go into the spare wheel well first, ok the boot will be wet, but not enough to get into footwell...

 

right i had this on my XR4i
IT WAS THE HEATER MATRIX
small rad thing in the car behind the radio on the sierra drivers side is were it comes in but like a radiator can leak from anywere

 

That would let a hell of alot more water than just to fill up a foot well though, those things make a right mess - eeeeeew

 

Keith - exactly the same prob with my 3i, and I thought it was window seal, so took glass out and re-sealed the rubbers. Nope.....

then thought ti was battery tray, so had it checked out.. Nope.....

Turns out to be a tiny hole less than an inch square in the rear passenger footwell, jsut where the bi that goes under the rear seat curves down and turns into the passenger footwell. Got it patched for Ł20 of me local auto welder bloke and no probs since then

 

On your mommmmmaa


Nige

 

hole in the floor as its a rusty nail that makes thrushs old one look like a concourse winner?

 

or, quite possibly, one of your "housemates" were climbing out the car, and accidently farted, showering your floor with a mix of semen and anal lube?

 

Had this on my car and it was water coming thru the rear clusters! I know 100% it was because i sat in the car while my g/friend hose'd it!! Whacked on some silicon sealer and it's been fine ever since Keith, is your driveway sloped?

 

driveway is sloped SLIGHTLY forward but only a nads!!
