Sunroof Leak L/H footwell quick fix tip
Hallo all,
Got in the car yesterday to find a swimming pool left hand footwell. Did the tests, LH forward drain pipe leaking where it gets to the bulkhead behind the internal fuse box.
Not wanting to take half the car apart, rigged up this replacement drain pipe (bit of cheap airline), only took half an hour, minimal strip out, fits behind all trim, can't be seen, exits through floor bung hole.
I'll probably fit the bung back and put the pipe through that, stop it chafing.
Bung being removed should only cause an issue if you're planning on wading...
Don't think it'll be visible, the foam under the carpet at that position is about 2 inch thick... Not replaced it yet as it's soaked, trying to let it dry out first.
Probably not a repair for the purists, but it works.
Will probably work drivers side too, hoping I'll never have to try it....
Just posting in case anyone is interested....
Cheers, Rich.

Brilliant 10/10
Clarkson uses a shotgun to put a hole in the floor It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
