VX Water Leaking into Drivers Footwell!

[danielnitschke]

Hello All!
What a wet end to the week.

Go to get in today, low and behold the floor is soaked. With a grimace I get in, twist my head and see that all the wiring, BCM etc whatever else is under there is also soaked and dripping. The car still starts and works fine but whew it's stressing me out a bit.

Locating the leak is easier said than done; done the classic hose trick pouring water over the front but can't really see much coming through (though was dark and pissing with rain, will try again tomorrow).

I've posted some photos on the off chance that some of you can see something immediately wrong or perhaps my suspicion was correct about the tiny gap in the Windshield rubber.


Any help would be deeply appreciated!

+ Most of the drop area seemed to be focused above the accelerator pedal.

Take the wiper arms off & the plastic surrounds. Have a look at the seams as this will be the problem. I had the same problem with my ute. I ended up re-sealing everything.
