Watter puddle in front area

Featured Replies

Hi guys, 

 

Already done research on youtube&briskoda. 

I found great puddle in front passenger side(left side drive) and tried with 2mm cable through drain tube. Problem is that cable doesnt come out to the engine bay,neither driver&passenger side. 

Official service Skoda guys tried with air compressor and with water. According to them everything now is ok. A pillar had some water in it. 

After few days same thing starts to happen on the driver side. 

 

Questions are:

-does the cable needs to go through drain tube all the way

-can water from passenger side overflowe to the driver side or now i have 2 problems

 

Thanks,

Update. 

Now the driver side is fully clogged. Filled with water panorama area but water stands still, no drop of water is visible in engine bay area under the wiper. Bowden wire 2mm can not penetrate the area. Tried it about 2 hours but now luck. It reaches somewhere around lower nipple. 

 

Passenger side, water is running normal but wire does not come out under the wiper area.

 

I guess procedure needs to be reverse, push the wire from under the wiper area to the roof. 

 

Any ideas? 

 

Is is possible to remove and wash or change rubber nipple under wiper area? How to do it? 

 

And one more thing, i can feel water under the seat is 3cm*5cm rectangle that floor-sponge is fully wet.

 

Thanks, 

might be some help in this thread and some diagrams too.

Thanks,

 

It seems that we have same issue. 

 

Sorry to read there is no final post  what was the cause and solution. 

 

In mean while i found that rear floor carpet behind passenger is little wet too.

 

Tommorow I will go to Skoda guys and leave them the car. 

 

After removing A pillars and probbably footrest and side panels of the dashboard i think we could have some conclusion. 

 

Is there maybe any picture how does look like interior chasis without carpet? Just the have idea how and where the water goes.

 

Already have body work manual. 

 

Car is parked on small downhill and bit on the right side.

Maybe the problem is on the left side all the time. 

 

Although, 5 days ago while only right front side was soaked left drain worked fine.

Update:

Car left at Skoda guys, 1st thing is to dry the car and then to check drains. 

 

Apperantly, skoda without panorama also have the same or similar issue. 

 

Reading one topic but i cant see what was the solution.
