Oh deep joy...
Put my hands under the passenger carpet and guess what?
Yep - absolutely saturated
I'm loving this car less and less......

And the full length plastic cover goes under the seat so looks like that has to be removed....

Just to be specific I'm on about the wiring loom cover itself, not the Landrover step cover that popped off easily

Narpy I can't tell you how chuffed I am!
I use another forum for tinkering with my wifes SLK and when I got the Disco and found this forum I knew I was in good company!
Been doing the sunroof drains fix after finding the carpets soaked in passenger footwell. Dehumidifier going in tonight

Good fix. Bit fiddly but thankfully all the plastic trim parts are flexible and tough. Will try and find the water source when the weather improves.

i actually cut that plastic loom cover to allow easy removal, made it a long rectangle leaving the under-seat portion intact. just in case the water came back... which it did. Everyone who cuts their black rubber valve at the end of the sunroof drain by blindly reaching up under the front fender, is in for a rough future. Im writing a thread about the fix required. Ive bled so you guys can reap the rewards... stay tuned...2005 Discovery 3 4.4L V8, gone
