Leakage in the footwell Options

[CroNO]

hey guys its been a long time since i've posted anything but now i got another ss-III, you'll be seeing me more often, i went to go put in my sub so i lifted the carpet to find that underlay of the carpet is all wet, today it was raining so i checked it again, looks like theres leakage coming from behind the dash... i dunno, but its coming through both corners (passenger and drivers side) has anyone had this problem? or is there anyway to fix it?

Heater matrix maybe??has your coolant level gone down?

doubt its the heat matrix since the heat matrix is only behind the dash on the passenger side, and i get nothing coming through on a sunny day, i have water coming through on both the passenger and drivers side

I would check the moonroof drain tubes, if your car has a moonroof. After that, check where the wiring harnesses go into the firewall, as they have been known to leak on occasion.

I would easily check your evap drain hose....it might not be routing to outside the firewall correctly, or it is disconnected or has holes. check your wires grommets, and check if there are holes between where your fender is. you can dry everything up and then get in your car and then have a friend spray water all over while you are inside, and then your goal is identify where the leak is coming from while he is wetting the car. I guess you can remove the carpets to make it easier first.

after some checks i have concluded that the water has been leaking through the fresh air vent, i am still unsure about where its coming from, i will need to open up the vent near the wiper blades and check it there
