modd1uk Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Ok guys, with winter coming i need to get this sorted as the recent few days of rain have made my car smell a little . Picture below of passenger footwell, does anybody have any idea where its coming from/how to fix it, its coming from the panel under the door from what i can tell if that helps.

Will370z Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I had the same problem with my roadster. Water was coming in from the top of the passenger window, following the contour of the window to the front of the door, travelling down the edge of the door at which pointit should have been funnelled towards the outside of the door but for me it came inside instead. My fix was to open the door, get thick pieces of tape and near the vent stick the tape at an angle to filter the water stream out of the car. It improved the problem but ultimately did not resolve it during heavy rain. Its oneof the reasons i eventually sold the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I had this really bad - I did a window reset - my passenger window wasn't doing up tight enough - fixed it for me she has been dry ever since 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richie-B Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Edd china hired a smoke machine and filled the inside of the car with dry smoke.. then the leak was found by looking for smoke coming out. Worth a try if your struggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaydnH Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I had the same problem, then I started driving a little slower when I had a passenger and the problem went away. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
