  1. Hi, Could anyone tell me where to locate the alarm horn on my 2006 Superb? Many thanks, Ryan
  2. Hi Rob, How expensive is expensive? Do you think it's likely to be the solution? The cables connecting to the unit seemed to be ok although I didn't take the individual pins out. Perhaps I should try tbis first? What's the best way to remove these? I tried to pull them out but didn't want to use too much force and break them. Thanks, Ryan
  3. When I order the new part, do I just need to match the part number '1CO 959 799 B' or also the rest of the numbers - Zm max 5DK 008 214-00 III 25005 H01/S004 ? Thank you, Ryan
  4. Hello everyone, Just a quick update on this. Over the weekend I stripped back all of the connections I could see on the cables down the side of the foot well and leading to the comfort control module. Most of them were indeed corroded to varying degrees. I also drilled a hole in the front (since drilling the hole in the back the water hasn't built up but the carpets were still pretty damp). The comfort control module seemed to be fine with no sign of damage from the water, but when I finished and turned the ignition no improvement to the problems. so now I think the next step is to order a new comfort control unit. While I was at it I took off the door panel to inspect the electric window as there was a grating noise and the window wouldn't quite go up. I found the culprit frayed cable, and tidied it up a bit and just about managed to get the window up. Now I'm unable to open the front passenger side door at all, and I'm unsure if this is because I've disturbed something or if this is also because of the comfort control module. Any further thoughts would be appreciated. Many thanks, Ryan
  5. Rob and Jimbof, Thanks for the replies. So far I've just drilled a couple of holes in the back footwells. This has offered some relief to the amount of water, but next task will be the area below the battery and the pollen filter. Thanks, Ryan
  6. Hi Rob, Thanks for your reply. I'll start with the pollen filter unit and try to release the water from under the battery. For the collection of water under the seats, I might drill a couple of holes either carefully through the carpet with a depth gauge or slice a small section of carpet to see what's going on. I know this sounds a bit heavy handed but after all the problems I've had with this car, as much as I love it, I've felt close to wanting to push it off a cliff! Cheers, Ryan
  7. Hi, For at least 18 months now I've had trouble with water entering all footwells. Recently, over the last few months I've been having problems with the electrics. The central locking only opens random doors, and one of them never opens. None of the windows open. None of the internal lights come on. The boot doesn't open apart from with the key. Yesterday I changed the battery in the car and noticed a huge pool of water below it's position. This led me to do a search online and it seems I have the problem below: http://nackuk.blogspot.co.uk/2010/06/with-some-of-interior-lights-puddle.html Also, when I last had the car in for a service it was discovered that the control box and the wiring was water logged. My question is, once all the wet is sorted will the control box need to be replaced or will it suffice if I re-do all of the connections? Many thanks, Ryan
