PeterL Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 The passenger footwell carpet is soaking just under the bonnet release handle and across to the door pillar. I have heard of gutters being blocked and water comming in, but I can't see where. I have put a cloth around the area of the heater vent to the foot well, but it does not get wet. Any info would be welcome on where to look and what to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BogMonster Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Blocked aircon drains can apparently be a cause of moistness down below, but when I had a wet carpet in the drivers footwell of my D2 it took months to find it and it was eventually found to be that some chump in the factory had cross-threaded one of the bolts on the drivers side bonnet hinge and the water was running down the threads Hinge off, the body rethreaded to a bigger bolt size and a liberal application of silicone sealant on reassembly sorted the problem.
