Mini Countrymen Cooper S 2010 | Water Leak When it Rains

Mini Countrymen Cooper S 2010 | Water Leak When it Rains

Here we have a Mini Countrymen Cooper S that come in for water leak testing, it has been driving the customer mad trying to find the leak.

He has removed most of the interior he’s self in an attempt to find the problem and dry the carpets…

Under further inspection, there is a problem with the driver's rear door membrane, which is allowing water to pass into the car onto the driver's rear foot well and working its way to front floor boards.  As we can see in the video, there are a lot of electrical cables and fuse box where the rain water is collecting will eventually cause mould and corrosion and electrical problems if it’s left. The solution to this particular leaky problem is an easy fix... we just remove the door panel and make a new door membrane from plastic sheeting, which is then bonded in place to make the door waterproof again. From there it's just a matter of drying the car out, which we do with dehumidifiers and hot air blowers.

We have been repairing leaks and drying cars for over 30 years

This Mini has a leak through the A-pillar. We think at this stage that this is because the clips, fixtures and fittings which go through the pillar from the inside are leaking.
