Passenger footwell would fill up under rain. Not sunroofs, appears dry around windscreen. I pulled the carpet and dried it out then tested with a hose and found where it comes out inside the panel. Just forward of passenger door, by the dash bracket. It slowly comes out the seam above the bracket and after a while it comes out fast by the threaded hole below the bracket. I belive the whole is for the trim plastic screw holder
. I wonder if there should be drainage berween the body panel internals? It could be blocked and fill up? What do I do next? I will see if I can pull the pillar finisher outside and see beside thenwindscreen. Any other ideas? With hose pipe on slow debot on the roof it filled the footwell within minutes!
Good find I'm going to check mine as I also have water on the passenger floor mat
looking through the records mine was in the dealership several times for water on passenger side
That seems to ba common to have water leaks...
I’m away for work but by the weekend I will pull the pillar protector piece and look down there. Water should have a way of draining out of the chassis so maybe it’s clughed or perhaps missing a deflector plate somewhere.
I have the same problem, siliconed the area of the corner rain gutter, it got much better, buts a bit wet sometimes. I need to get it bone dry first. My gut is that the A Pillar cover is not completely sealed against the windshield. Is that accurate that that trim piece should seal out water? It is pretty flimsy if that is the case.
I was looking at that and the a-pillar trim does not contact the windscreen, it sits about 2mm away from it so I think the dealership didn't reinstall them properly when they did the windscreen...
Once it stops raining I will pull them off and post back here with pictures.
the drain hole behind the a pillar was plugged. I poked the dirt and about 2 litres of water came pooring out.
I will seal a bit the top but I think it’s sorted now with the drain hole freed up!!
Found the leak! Well sort of...
