Post by: folgate on 22 December 2012, 14:12

hi guys woke up this morn started my drive to work this morn windows were steamed up something extreme stuck heaters on which made it worse and was hell to drive. went to grab something off passenger seat then realised there was a pool a good few cm's in footwell after poking around i noticed that it was coming from behind the dash but dont know where its coming in. anyone had this happen before and know what its from. looked under bonnet and saw there were to puddles either side of windscreen between it and wing poked around and got all the water out from there could that be where its coming through.  ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED GUYS CHEERS  :undecided:

dosn't sound like heater matrix then so i guess you have a seal gone or the drains are blocked somewhere get under the dash and see if you can feel where water could get in hope you sort it

At the ends of the scuttle panel is two drain holes which have prob been blocked by leaves etc.
