    Water Driping Inside

    After the nice drop of rain we had I have noticed a few drip marks on the front passenger floor they seem to be coming from the air box underneath the glove box or more precisely from a little grey foam sponge type gasket (See Below)
    If anyone can tell me whats going on or more importantly how to fix it i would be grateful





    Cheers

    I would be checking the drainage from the windscreen grill guys and possibly the fresh air intake


    Might have to clean the debris out with air if it has blocked and water can back up, etc....Just an idea?

    Trial and error, pour some water in the grill below the windscreen and see if it drains ok and or leaks in.

    It is the windscreen grill fellas. I think there is a hose that connects inside the cabin that drains it outside. Either the hose has partly come off or has a whole in it. Bloody hard to get at but will persist this weekend

    Yes it does come inside and out the front....Could also be blocked by crap....Air compressor down the gril and see if you can blow it out first.

    Just poured water (quite a lot) into windscreen grill and nothing comes inside. Have just poured water on the windscreen and the water in one spot goes in under the seal and drips inside. About to put some sealant around the windscreen which will fix the problem

    CHANGED MY MIND WILL GET WINDSCREENS O'BRIEN TO DO IT

    Does this happen while the car is parked or when driving with the A/C on?

    My windscreen seal is stuffed also - leaks at bottom right and drips on my foot!! Something else that needs doing.
