Tom Fenton 1,542 Posted September 6, 2008 No other place it can have come from if it is coolant. I had wet headunits die before on my old Mini with a leaky windscreen seal. Pop it somewhere warm for a week or so and it may come back to life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted September 6, 2008 A wet head unit in a 205 pretty much has to be a leaking heater matrix. If the carpets are wet, stick your finger in & lick it afterwards. You'll know if its antifreeze so keep a glass of water handy to rinse your mouth out afterwards. Depending on the mixture of water & antifreeze you might even be able to smell if its coolant if you don't fancy tasting it. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
