Help leak!! - Mac22 - 11-11-2013

Hey guys. Need some help.. I woke up today and there was a puddle on my passenger side foot well, I havnt got a door card on do thort maybe the seal was broke.. But there's no signs of water coming down the side.. I don't think it could be heater matrix because it's just water doesn't smell of anything.. It was raining last night so hoping it's just a leak threw the door.. But there was pretty much a small puddle.. Any advice??

I'll take your small puddle and raise you a larger one.

You win!!!


RE: Help leak!! - Tom - 11-11-2013

It can do that every morning. Pretty awesome really.


RE: Help leak!! - Mac22 - 11-11-2013

How come????


RE: Help leak!! - itone24 - 11-11-2013

Thats definitely a large puddle!


RE: Help leak!! - silverzx - 11-11-2013

Heater matrix or door seal or sunroof, take your pick!


RE: Help leak!! - Mac22 - 11-11-2013

Not sun roof that's fine.. If it was heart matrix surely it will be wet further up but it's bone dry.. I'm not sure grrr

Water matrix leak is usually brown and smells of coolant if you have any.


RE: Help leak!! - Mac22 - 11-11-2013

Yeh that's what I was thinking but it's just water..

Get a door seal from the scrap yard. Cheap and worth a shot.


RE: Help leak!! - r3k1355 - 12-11-2013

You wanna hope it's the door seal, cos the heater matrix isn't much fun to replace.

Get the hose out and run it over the car, you'll soon see if it's leaking water in.


RE: Help leak!! - mr_fish - 12-11-2013

is it loosing coolant? if not it shouldn't be the matrix.

my money is on door seal or possibly roof Ariel.


RE: Help leak!! - r3k1355 - 12-11-2013

It'd have to rain chuffing hard to get that much through the ariel.

Mine used to leak, but I usually noticed when it took a wee on me in the morning - it didn't leak so much it formed a puddle overnight.

Connor if you want a door seal give me a shout.


RE: Help leak!! - Sian - 12-11-2013

The china 6 is worse then that haha! Poor thing has a pond in the back lol


RE: Help leak!! - Mac22 - 13-11-2013

Yeh frosty if you've got one!! I found out it's the door seal.. Poured a bucket of water on roof and it come threw at door! But the seat was wet this morning! No idea!

I think because the door card isn't on it could be that.. But no idea about the seat unless it's damp from the puddle over night? It's like it's going threw the seal and under the carpet.. Definitely not sun roof!! And can't be matrix either.. Hmmmm


Help leak!! - Frosty - 13-11-2013

I will grab a seal and bring it over sometime.


RE: Help leak!! - Jtrigga - 13-11-2013

Could be coming through the scuttle panel the drainage holes could be blocked.


RE: Help leak!! - silverzx - 13-11-2013

Easier option is to just pack a towel (standard Pug equipment for me) and just mop it up each time.. Tongue

Thats exactly what i do haha, got a microfibre in the glovebox!


RE: Help leak!! - silverzx - 13-11-2013

My 205 sun roof is far from water proof..

Suppose it doesn't help to have a full roof size sun roof that you can't go over 60mph with it open as the wind noise/force is unbearable. Tongue


RE: Help leak!! - Tom - 13-11-2013

My sunroof is water tight, beleive it or not! haha
