diarmaid16 1 Posted November 3, 2014 Welcome along. Type "passenger footwell" into the searchbar above and you will find a few threads covering this which should help you out. If not, people here will be happy to help. Get some pictures of the 8v up too when you get a chance. Best of luck! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jon_vr6 1 Posted November 3, 2014 If thats the case it could be your heater matrix, take the passenger side undertray out and have a feel around the heater box to see if its leaking from there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted November 4, 2014 always worth checking the foliage filter too, take a look at this http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=76785 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted November 4, 2014 Does sound like it could be the dreaded heater matrix, but the scuttle foliage cover is certainly a possible culprit. As Jon says, check for coolant around the heater box by removing the tray under the glovebox and feeling around in there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nas 0 Posted November 4, 2014 Thanks for the heads up guys will check the scuttle and remove the under tray passenger side to have a feel if it is wet under there I did forget to mention this has only started to happen when we had the down pore a couple of weeks ago here in Brighton Nas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
britpop95 0 Posted November 4, 2014 Hope its not your heater matrix mate, just finished fitting my new one awful awful job to do on the corrado Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted November 4, 2014 ^^agree. Still need to finish putting mine back together after doing the matrix, it's a rubbish job but fairly easy. Just time consuming I've found with the odd hrs here and there I've got available Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
