Land Rover discovery 2015 | part 1

Video transcript

0:00 Land Rover Discovery in today for a water leak, it's a 15 plate. And the problem is the sunroof drain is blocked, so it's backing up on itself and then making its way into the vehicle. And so basically what we've got on the top here is we've got like a little bottle which I filled up with some water, as we give that a squeeze. And then basically what it should do is it should come out the front arch. You can see there's no water there. And so what I'm going to do is I'm just going

0:28 place you inside the car for a moment, and then what I'm going to do is I'm just going to put a tiny bit of water down. I'm pouring the water down now. You can see where it's dripping in, so it's dripping in obviously above the cables there, and also it's running down the side there as well. Just to show you underneath the carpet. On top of the carpet seem to be dry, but underneath, if we squeeze the sponge, you can see that it's soaking wet. And we've got a nice

1:04 puddle here. And also we have a cable which runs all the way down, which is in a trough. The water is actually sat in this trough as well. It's not got the back carpet, but it has worked its way to the bottom of the trough. And so it's a case of obviously de-blocking, and that should solve the customer's issue.

Here we have a Land Rover discovery with a water leak due to the sunroof pipes being blocked

This is causing it to back up and then into the car by the passenger side  foot well and dripping onto the floor due to debris getting into the sunroof drainage pipes.

Please watch part 2 for more information.

Question: "There is heavy condensation in my car and a damp smell. Today I found the carpets are wet. I went through a car wash and didn't see anything leak." 

Answer: It is very rare to see water dripping down or running down a window, just as in this video, it could be something like a broken or blocked connector on a drainage pipe. It is not uncommon that the first people realize that water is getting inside their car is when they smell that damp, swampy odour. It is not only important to find and fix any leaks, but we need to get did of that smell which leads to mould which can be harmful to your health. This is why we decontaminate your car with anti-microbial and then thoroughly dry the car.
