isobarboy 25 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Had a typical rear leaky drivers side footwell. Plugged a leaky pipe from the sunroof drain which was front left, bu that leaked into the dash. Dried carpet and underkay out. A month later its wets again.Not around the edges of the footwell, slapbang in the middle?Couod this be a whole?? Didnt feel one.Heard about a vent which sputters into this footwell, just wondered how you check this to be the culprit tooCheers people Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 Check under the car for the bungs that sit in the floor holes, these are typical to rot out leaving a big hole in the floor, check all of them there's loads all over the floor. Link to post Share on other sites

isobarboy 25 Posted March 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Found these bungs. Pressed one and it crunched.... doesnt look rotted but I know that sound. Hopefully by the looks of it i dont have to bad a job as ive caught it early. Or does its external look not give away the damage? Link to post Share on other sites
Lukey. 381 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 The only sure way is to push the bung out and see what the metal is like, some of mine were crunchy but still in place, but it was just underseal holding everything together. Link to post Share on other sites

isobarboy 25 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 Found the culprit...luckily very early. No rust!!Remove all layers, and rubber. Filled with silicon in the lid so its full upon reinsertion. Then layered lots of silicon either side.As I do not have welding skills I made do. And I think its worked!
