Post by Katy »

Hiya - I am now the owner of a '94 auto fto gpx :D ... and loving it very much!!
Couple of questions - I have noticed water leaking on to my right foot (accelerator pedal) after rain - has anyone else had this issue?
... and when I open the FTO boot (after rain) water pours in to the boot - does anyone know if their is some sort of weatherseal/ splashguard available
cheers
Have a great day

I know water ends up in the footwell after your heater matrix has had it.. Are you sure that the water is from the rain and not from your heater. Oh and have you noticed any rust in your car. That would be the only other reason I could think of

AS to the boot, where does the water pour in from when you open it. If it is from around the seal, have a look around where the boot seal is and see if there are any holes.

    Water leaks can a bitch to find.

    As dstocks said are you sure its only after it rains cause it can be the heater matrix but if its only after it rains then get a hose and tape it too your windsrceen (Nozel facing downand and as bigger arch as possible) turn it on and leave it for 10 -15 mins. Now grab a tourch get your head under the steering coloum and start having a look around to find it. Once you have found where the drip is coming from it usually can be fix with some silicone that you can get from any auto parts shop.
