Has any1 ever had the problem of havin a small swimming pool under their feet?!!?
I had this prob wif my 1st polo but soon fixed that as it was cuming in through the door. Recently got myself a GT & going thru its 1st winter with me ive had the exact same problem... except itas nt cumin thru the door. Any other suggestions on how the water cood b flooding in2 the car?
Take a good an d close look at your windscreen/glass and the Windshield seal. Its a polo "illnes" The seal is in most cases the problem. When you're not so lucky you'll find some corosion under the seal....
i've had probs like this n all, firstly in my mk2. that was bad, it was when it rained, had to bale it out a couple of times! wasn't coming throught the doors cause we changed the inner lining!
to this day, its still a mistery
i have now noticed it in my mk3, not half as bad but under the mats, it does feel damp/wet! really don't no where it comes from!
It's more likely to be either windscreen seal, bonnet cable grommet or sunroof drainage etc. The door seals can leak, but the amount of water that comes in when they go is usually small.
well ive checked the door seals 1st as that was the problem on my original mk3 but on the GT they r fine. Thanx 4 all the suggestions ill have a good look at it tomorrow, well if the crap Scottish weather allows it!
Ripped all the carpets out last week just nt had the chance 2 check where the leak is cuming from.
On that subject, why does my windscreen seem to mist up on the "inside" of the glass?
IE not on the surface facing the freezing, dry but icy outside world, nor the surface facing the almost-freezing, moisty interior, but the impenetrable glass between the two which cannot be wiped clear?
It goes away with some extreme defrosting tactics, but can take a while... Highly annoying to wipe down what looks like interior mist only to not make *any* difference to it, nor the wipers.
(what was the sign of a bust matrix again - misting up/not clearing without a wipe on full heat, or full cold? can never figure it out but maybe ive got that ailment mildly - use 50% right now as a compromise)
That happened 2 mine. It was blocked wiv leaves in the battery area, dunno why that caused wet inside the car?!? But anyway I can remember avin that problem, and removing all the leaves sorted it!
