Default Blower Motor

Not much of a search well at lease not what I'm looking for. When it rains heavy like what the north east is getting now I get alot of water comming down from the dash board seemingly the blower motor. My question is it a complete change out or is it leaking else where and driping on to it. Can't seem to find

Your drain plugs might be plugged up that allows water out of fresh air intake. If you are missing the foam mesh, chances are debris made there way into the intake and are what is causing the clog. I would also check the screws on the filter covers, they need to be really tight, otherwise water will get in.

Thanks the pollun filters were soaked. I have the middle filter under the windsheild. It's completely gone so hopefully thats the problem. Its just raining so damn hard out side I cant' change it out yet. Should I leave the soak pollen filters in or leave them out and just seal the covers with silicone until I get them from A/B in a day or so? I'm literally watching drips in back of dash. Gonna look for drain plugs little later

If you don't have a filter, that will not cause a leak. However, it is really bad for your blower motors. So unless you feel like replacing the blower motors, I'd get those filters replaced. Sealing them with silicon is a good idea, especially if its raining all the time in your area.

A few of us Aussies are having similar issues at the moment. Check out this thread at aulro.com http://www.aulro.com/afvb/p38a-range...-footwell.html and my photo journal at http://paulp38a.com/gallery/v/99RR/plenum_air/

Please let us know if you solve the problem first.

Cheers, Paul.
