adolf1976 0 Posted August 28, 2010 hi all. After all the rain ive got a wet drivers footwell. Have traced it back as far as its coming down the a pillar from wot seems to be the front of the screen. it runs down a pillar then thru dash. Pass the fuse board and into footwell. Have anyone else ever had this. It looks like previous owners have plowed a load of mastic along side of screen but to no avail please help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaddoMan 0 Posted August 28, 2010 sounds like its got a leak , or the sunroof channels are blocked Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adolf1976 0 Posted August 28, 2010 sounds like ive gotta take the linin off then eh. Been a bad week for the C. Heater controls broke but have been repaired. Abs light stays on. Thought it had two mths mot left its got two weeks. Now needs brakes all round and the leak sorted. Four wheel allignment needed and at least two tyres and a smell of fuel when i turn it off. I think it may come off the road soon or im selling my n97 for funds. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adolf1976 0 Posted August 28, 2010 would putting some silicone around front screen rubber matter. Does not seem like a very tite fit Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 7 Posted August 28, 2010 Check all the cables/grommets that run into the cabin. From personal experience, I traced a leak from where the bonnet cable enters the car (next to the wiper motor). the grommet had become loose and allowed water in behind the fuse box. Another one could be the drivers side sunroof connector pipe could be blocked. There's quite a lot of potential leak areas so you may have to strip quite a lot back in order to locate it. Have you had the car apart or carried any recent work out that may have displaced something ??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adolf1976 0 Posted August 28, 2010 no car has not been apart. It has had a bit of water in drivers footwell now and again but after the downpour it was soaked. Seen water runnin down inside the a pillar and traced it as far as behind the drivers sun visor. Havent taken roof lining off yet to investigate further. Thinking about it car was parked on a drivers side camber when it peed down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it's leaking badly then there may be too much water for the sunroof guttering to deal with. Head linings a 20 min job at most. Once that's out I'm sure you'll spot the leaky bit !
