0:00 So, water leak found video for a Fiesta 2009. Okay, so a lot of people spend a lot of time with a lot of heartache on these cars, trying to find where the water gets in. This particular car's been to two different places before, and I can see here by the evidence that they're trying to seal the back lights.
0:23 It doesn't mean the back lights weren't leaking, but it could just be that they didn't find the real problem. But either way, I'm here to show you where it is. Right, so it tends to go around these seams. On the corner, it's a box section, of course, this. And if I put some of this fluorescent dye right on the hotspot, which is just here, I'll show you. Although it doesn't look like there's any gaps there, I can show you that there is.
0:54 So I've just pulled the trigger on that. You can see the water rolling down there, so that's not going in the car. If I look inside, and then I show you my fluorescent light, you can see it's dripping down there and landing there. So we need resealing, but we'll seal both sides even though the other side hasn't gone, and I will show you in the rest of the video. The car smells quite bad as well, you can't see that in the video. And there's a welter under here, it's soaked, and it soaked both sides because
1:28 the water splashes over and finds its way both sides. So the seats are going to have to come out to dry it properly, because you'll never ever dry it without doing that. It's got to get to the foam and dry it from underneath. Oh God, it smells pretty damp in there. So we need resealing and then drying.
