Paul-Corrado16V 0 Posted January 11, 2004 Got a real problem, Got a VW corrado 2.016v on a k92. Every time it rains, i always find water inside the car under the floor mats. Nothing else is wet except the floors and carpets. I am new to the corrado world and like every other corrado driver loves there motor...but it is a bloody arse ache when it F's up. Any ideas ? Cheers, Paul. :cry: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bolster 0 Posted January 16, 2004 I have had a customised piece of polystyrene (unused takeaway container) redirecting water past the fan intake (from the windscreen to the drain hole in the wing) for the last 2 months :lol: . I can see it staying that way for a while seeing as I'm too lazy to seal the cover properly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anthonyg 0 Posted January 21, 2004 hi, i have the same problem in my g60 (drivers side only). It's a common problem with the a2 chassis vws - the plastic door skin behind the door card becomes brittle with age and detatches from the door. As a consequence water finds its way into the car via the bottom of the door cards. Simply buy some visqueen, cut to shape of the door, making sure to leave as little gap around door handles etc as possible. Use heavy duty double sided tape/spray on leather glue to bond to door frame. Lift the carpets from the foot wells and dry the sound proofing as soon as you can as these will rot. This should solve your problem... taking the door card off only takes about 10 mins so you should be able to eliminate this as a cause fairly quickly if your skins are intact. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted January 21, 2004 Phil, Have you done anything to sort it out ? Paul. Erm, no I'm having enough problems trying to keep it on the road. On the Mk1 it was coming in through the doors as there was no plastic liner... easily sorted with some plastic sheet and duc tape. Am planning to strip the sunroof and check drain holes on the C soon as I have it back and running... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
