morgey Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Is your heater matrix leaking? Have the plugs under the floor/car popped out? Are your door seals intact? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
markostarletturbo Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Does sound like heater matrix Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PaulStarletSR Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Im gettin this aswell but its because theres water runnin down the bay n thru 1 of the holes in the bulkhead because the SR is at an angle on stands after havin the glanza engine dropped in. The loom rubber duznt fit flush in 1 of the holes so thats where mine is cumin from, plus the usual condensation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
funny onion Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Mine does this. There's a hole on the bulkhead that the air con pipes used to go through that is usually the cause. Mines the scuttle panel I think though, had it off about a year ago and didn't get it back on properly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StarletMad Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 The water isn't coming in there guys just have a quick look. Carpet is drenched and stinks lol. I pulled aside the wiring in the kick panel and lifted that rubbery shit and the water is coming in between there and the bulkhead. :-\ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starbo Moorley Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Windscreen seal ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StarletMad Posted October 18, 2012 Author Share Posted October 18, 2012 Its happened quite suddenly like in the last couple of weeks and there's alot of water there today if it was windscreen seal would it not be a more gradual thing? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Starbo Moorley Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Depends how bad a state its in Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morgey Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 If it stink its most likely coolant, usually smells almost curry-ish check pipes around heater matrix and the matrix itself. Also whats your coolant level like? If it stink its most likely coolant, usually smells almost curry-ish check pipes around heater matrix and the matrix itself. Also whats your coolant level like?
