hello everyone,

I have a strange one. Whenever I go through a brushless automatic carwash, i get a small trickle of water at my feet on the driver's side. Only in the automatic carwash, never in the rain, or during a manual wash.

Does anyone have any ideas where this may be sneaking in so that I can plug it up with All Clear?

Cheers

probably because of the under carrage wash. get under it and have a decent look for rust or a missing grommet

Or it could be the windscreen seal.

doubt it because the ones with the brushes usually use high pressured water to

Yeah granted but it wouldn't be a trickle though if it was a missing grommet.

depends on the angle from my thinking. if its directly it would be but if its to the side, it would only be a trickle

segway: does anyone know if the plastic cover under the windscreen wipers seals anything? mine is cracked and broken, would this be causing the leak?

cheers
