Woosey 0 Posted August 24, 2006 (edited) took my scuttle panel off, there is no standing water in there, however there are holes in the scuttle panel to allow water straight into the fan intake....how on earth is that good design! So how can it be "patched" up so water hasn't got an easy ride in? make a snorkel for it?! thanks Chris Edited August 24, 2006 by Woosey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TEKNOPUG 3 Posted August 24, 2006 How an earth else is air going to get into the fan intake without holes in the scuttle panel????? You're soaking passenger side will either be a leak in the heater matrix of the water will be coming in through the window rubbers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonmurgie 2 Posted August 24, 2006 Do you have a sunroof? If so then it's probably a blocked drain pipe from there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woosey 0 Posted August 24, 2006 Heater matrix then. Or you have a hole in the floor! im 100% its not the heater matrix, ive had one go before! she hasn't been driven in 8 months and the coolant hasn't gone down, also rules out a hole on the underside. mystery leak!

Jonmurgie 2 Posted August 24, 2006 How do you know it's under the carpet and not on top? I get a leak in my track car from the door seal rubber and where it joins on the bottom... might be worth looking there?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gentrix 2 1 Cars Posted August 24, 2006 The scuttle panel has to be fitted underneath the Windscreensealing - if it just sits on top of the sealing, you will get wet feet. So check, if the scuttle panel is correctly fitted andi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
