Drivers Front Footwell Leak
« on: 08 December 2018, 19:20 »
Having some trouble finding a water leak around the drivers footwell. Wonder if anyone else has had similar problem?

The water appears to be coming from above the OBD port and covering the bonnet release, speaker grill and that corner of the floor. Never leaks when driving, only when parked in a heavy downpour (resorted to leaving a bucket in overnight to catch the majority)

I've already checked the door/screen seals and the scuttle drains are totally clear. Even tested areas with a hosepipe and still cannot find the culprit.

Wonder if i'm missing something or could anything else be causing the issue?

How old is the car? Still under Warranty let the dealer worry about it. If it is on the speaker do you mean the door speaker or the Tweeter in the A pillar?

Have you had the car from new? If not there's a good chance it could've been in an accident.
