Water in rear footwell

Featured Replies

Hi all.. 

After recent heavy rain I noticed that the rear passenger footwell was soaked.. The front was also wet.. 

I've searched the forums and seen the most obvious causes.. 

So far I've cleared out the sunroof drain.. I could only see front drains. 

I've removed the wheel arch liners and removed a load of leaves and crap and made sure that water can flow. 

I've checked the pollen filter inside the cabin.. This was dry. 

There is mention of water ingress via the cabin air intake. 

I couldn't find out from forum where this is.. Guessing behind scuttle. 

Any help is appreciated 

 

Check the door seals are free to drain, they're possibly just not as tight as they once were.  If your doors get heavy use look along the exterior lines for misalignment and check the hinges for wear which could all contribute to a poor seal that only shows itself when wind/rain are at the right angle.
