Hello all,
A few days ago I noticed a funny smell inside my car (7A-FE), and I discovered now that the passengers carpet is all wet. Also some steam is coming out from the dashboard when I turn off the engine. (You hear some sizzling sound then) To me it looks like a leak somewhere inside... I'm afraid it's going to be expensive to find the leak/fix it.  Does anyone has an idea what I could try? |

yes, its not THAT bad if you take your time. its a good 6-8 hour project if you pay a shop to do it, $700ish in JUST labor. for a DIY'er plan on about a day to take it apart and a day to put it back together. get several trays and organize your bolts and nuts and parts, work slowly, and you'll be OK...maybe.
