Car Water Leak Found Video Index

As James says, this car had been driving the customer 'potty' and he had already had a go at fixing some of the leaks and had previously stripped out the interior and had the carpet out.

Modern cars are constructed by spot-welding the panels together. This is strong enough to hold your car together, but it doesn't make them waterproof, as the seams aren't welded all the way along.

This car is a very good example of what happens with sunroofs on many makes and models of cars.

This VW Golf has had some wiring work done in the back, which seems to be an after-market parking censor.

Here we are again with the leaky Lexus. Although all the leaks were covered in the previous video, for the sake of being thorough, James will demonstrate the leaking seams.

When a customer brings a car to us with a leak, we'll never know exactly what we'll find. What would you do if you were looking for a leak and found one, would you stop looking?

After further investigation into this Suzuki, James has pinpointed the exact welded seam which is causing the problem and allowing water to leak in.

The rear air vents are leaking on this Suzuki, as if to prove that it's a problem on virtually all makes of cars.

Here we are doing what we do best -- finding water leaks. Leaks like this can really be hard to track down, and it helps greatly if you have lots of experience and an arsenal of specialist equipment.

This car was suffering from the trough under the scuttle filling up with water due to the drainage holes being blocked with leaves.

This BMW is leaking from the sunroof. At this stage in the inspection, it isn't immediately clear what is actually causing the leaks.

The Toyota Yaris is a popular little car, and for good reason. We love them, however, they aren't without their problems, as we can see on this video. The leaks found on this Yaris are all fairly common issues.

Leaking rear air vent and the issue with the blanking tape, and the cracked welded seams at and above the tail gate hinges.

This Focus had our inspection and despite the very wet carpets, this car didn't have a multitude of leaks like some other cars of this model have.

This model of BMW has a swimming pool in the back, but it wasn't an optional extra.

Here we have a Seat Leon with wet carpets, and although there is evidence of leaking through the door membranes, this doesn't tally up with the large amounts of water in the boot.

It's no surprise that the rear air vents are leaking on this Toyota -- door membranes and rear air vents account for a huge amount of leaks on cars.

This Ford Focus has wet carpets and water in the spare wheel well in the boot, so the customer brought the car to us to find the leaks.

Standard stuff on this Ford Fiesta. The sealant which is on the spot-welded seals around the tail-gate hinges has cracked and is letting in water.

James shows the leaks from the scuttle area. There are two bolts which have a rubber washer which should seal them waterproof.
