Thanks for that! The parts diagram shows a LH and a RH drain so I assume there's another on the battery side where I initially started looking. Where you show on the LH side is a bit further forward than I initially started looking on the RH. This should help a lot!

Hi Richard,

Had the water run to the front footwells of your car and were the back footwells always wet?

Thanks.

Mark

Hi @markbrads

YES, when we get heavy rain, the water used to come all the way to the front. That is how I found out I have a leak.

When we get heavy rain or a tropical storm water would accumulate unnoticed under the 3rd row seats. Once I start driving, water would move to the 2nd row seats footwell, then to the front.

Hi Richard,

Thanks for coming back to me and confirming, I'm going to check under the 3rd-row seats tomorrow. Did you replace both sides or is there only one side to check and fix?

Quite unbelievable isn't it for a £65k product and Land Rover doesn't give a damn from the comments I've seen on most forums.

Thanks.

Mark

Hi Mark,

I traced the source of the leak to only one side. The other side was not leaking, so I did not touch it.

Land Rover SUCKS!
