wet drivers footwell, .......


What has caused this? ive checked heater matrix, leaks, etc can't figure it out.

Only things i could suggest is 1. Both Doors had gaps in them from a break in - both replaced now. 2, windscreen has whitre marks along the bottom and condesation on a cold morning

any help would be appreciated.

 

Check that all the rubber bungs in the bulkhead are fitted correctly.
Thats the usual cause.

 

you mean the rubber circles where wires can be feed throught to the interior - ie for immobilisers? checked that seems ok

any other ideas?

 

Its quite common for the scuttle panel to rot underneath the rubbers, but you never know its there. Best way mate is to get in the car and get your glamorous assistant to drench the car with the hose and you will see the leak

 

cheers for that , so ill get miss fit to pour water on the rubber seal?

 

Lol yea, make sure you spill the water over her top aswell

 

will do

she just jumped on me landing on the bonnet!

cheers, ill have a look at it asap

 

has it been waxoiled lots? i did mine 2 much n blocked the sill drains it filled up like a submarine. try poking a small screwdriver in the drain gaps on the inner ,outer sills and see if water runs out

 

just done mine this weekend mate was wetter than an otters pocket lol.i had to fit new battery tray and the leak on drivers side was the fuse box wasnt screwed down at all tested today with hose and all is dry,tip strip the seats out and carpets n sound deadening and lie inside with a torch this is wot i did and you can see lots and at least you can dry everything out properly before you refit it

 

Sorted

Battery trays are very common for that I fucking HATEEEEEE people that take stuff apart and dont put screws/bolts back in

 

yer thats all ive done since i got the s2 is rectify other peoples shit handy work but its getting there now m8 well at least till next week lol
