Citroën DS3 | Water Leak Video

2022

This Citroën DS3 came to us with wet carpets on the front, although the vehicle was parked on a slope, so water had found its way to the back.When we lift the carpet, you can see there is a lot of water in the floor pans and this won't dry out naturally, so the car will need to be dries before it damages the electrics. The actual cause of the leak was the panel seams on the roof. To repair was a simple matter of removing the roof panel and sealing the edges with a good quality sealant.

Water in your car leads to mould, mildew, rot and corrosion. Up to a 3rd of the value of your car is the electrical systems, which are easily damaged by water and costly to replace.

Question: "My car doesn't seem to leak when it rains, but afterwards when I drive around a corner, water pours out from the side of the dashboard onto the floor on the passenger side."

Answer: Many cars have a tray below the windscreen which often contains things like the windscreen wiper motors, water from the windscreen often runs through the scuttle and into this area which should have at least two drainage holes, possibly more. The problem is that this area can typically get filled with leaves and debris, which block up the drainage holes over time and fill the tray. It can then slop from side-to-side, front-to-back while you are driving and slosh over into holes in the bulkhead and pour down behind the dashboard. The solution is usually just to unblock the drainage holes, although some sealing of the bulkhead can also prevent future leaks.
