Car Water Leak Found Video Index

Unfortunately, we don't always get it right first time. When we find leaks, we fix them, then we test the car under a rain arch. But this doesn't reveal all leaks, which is why we say that the real world is the real test.

This Fiesta came to us with wet carpets, and we performed our leak diagnostic service to find the points of water ingress.

This Ford Focus 2005 was experiencing multiple water leaks in the boot and back doors of the Ford, causing rust in the boot and back seats.

The main problem with this car is the rear air vents, which is common on all cars of this age. We recommend replacing the vents with new ones and sealing them properly into place.

This Ford S-Max has water in the front footwell, with wet carpets, which has led to black mould.We found evidence of previous repair in the front, where somebody had sealed over a welded seam.

In this video, James shows us that the rubbers have come loose from the bottoms of the rear doors and that the door membrane are beginning to fail.

We don't always get it right first time and sometimes after we have repaired a leak, a car will come back with water in it.

You can see in this video that the water in the car has caused rust. Rust causes more rust, so having rusty water sloshing around in your car is not good.

This video shows how the welded seams at the top of the tailgate are leaking.

Upon investigation we found just one leaking door membrane, however when one perishes it is a sign the others will probably leak soon, so we recommend replacing all four doors.

We found several leaks on this Ford Fiesta. The welded seams in the top of the tailgate were found to be leaking.

This B-Max had already been to a garage for diagnosis, but the car was still wet, so the customer brought the car to us for specialist water leak diagnostics.

This S-Max is still leaking water from the bottom of the doors, despite somebody's previous attempt at repairing the leaks with a very generous amount of sealant.

This car has been to another garage who couldn’t find the leak, by running through our 28 point check.

There are three areas of concern on this Ford Fiesta, all common sources of leaks that we have found before.

This Ford B-Max just has the common problem of water leaking into the boot through the rear air vents. When we say this is a common problem, it is common to almost all cars.

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.

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 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.
