So my fabia Vrs has been sat for about a month and I came to it and the inside windscreen and rear windows is soaking in water. What could cause this.

Leaking rear door seals letting water in and soaking the carpets/underlays.

I did 1 door about a year ago, now other side needs doing :(

Could anyone send a link to these seals please

Ive done all of my doors and they are bone dry, car is still getting damp inside

Could anyone send a link to these seals please

 

Thanks Guys, Ill have to check footwells at weekend.

 

Any Other Common Places for these Fabias too Leak ?

Plenum chamber drains can become blocked leading to water getting into the front of the car.

Simple Fix?

The rear screen wash hose can pop off of it's connection just behind the n/s/r passengers seat back rest, but obviously you would get no screen wash to the rear screen as a tell tale. That's how I found out about mine anyway. Consequently the foot well on that side was soaking wet and I was getting mucho condensation in the car.

Simple Fix?

 

You have to unclip the plastic scuttle panel underneath the wipers, then just clean the drain holes out. The clips holding the panel nearly always break, so you'd probably need some more. Part number N90911301

   

Do the wiper arms need to come off to get that cover far enough up for doing this clear-out, Lee?

Yes the wipers have to come off too.

Mine only does it in certain weather conditions.  I know it doesn't actually leak in water as carpets are dry.  I just think in a damp atmosphere, or sudden changes/contrasts in temperature from inside & outside the car, it condensates.  I've thought about mocking up a DIY dehumidifier using a couple of socks and filling them with something whose name escapes me right now - it soaks up water in the air anyway,

You can get dehumidifying boxes from the £1 shop but you have to be careful as the calcium chloride liquid they collect is quite aggressive if spilt.

I managed to get down behind the wipers without takin them off (think they'd been welded on!) didn't crack the plastic and managed to add a big blob of silicone around where the leafs had settled next to the wires so they cant sit in there again! (dont think my car was leaking from there, but i did it whilst i had sealant all over my hands from dooing the doors!)
