Suzuki SX4 2013 | Water Leak Detection Part 3

0:00 Ok, so we're just coming to the end of our investigation. So we've removed the scuttle area. It all looks nice and clean under there. We're not getting any water ingress from inside here, where normally they crack on this sort of area on the Ford Cougars. I've also gone underneath your arch. So we've gone underneath your arch liner and tested all the welded seams up the back, inside.

0:25 And everything seems to be ok, so these seams around here and the grommet. And so what we're going to do is, we've got some UVA dye here. And what we're going to do is, we can see that the bottle isn't leaking at the moment, so if I just pump this up. And what we need to do is, if we can see this weld here, so this is the weld we're going to be focusing on, where it comes down here and then goes across. So what we're going to do is, we're going to get our sprayer and

1:00 and what I'm gonna do is try and get that directly in that hole. It's a bit hard doing it with a camera. But okay, so we'll fill that crack up with, obviously, the UVA die. And then what that should then do is, if we go in on the inside, there we go. So we've got the UVA die coming through.

1:33 So there we go. So we've now worked out that the welded seam which has given us the problem is kind of behind this front arch. Obviously to get to that seam under there, I believe we're going to have to remove this arch to get it done properly, and then that should solve the, obviously, the ingress of the water into the bottle. And so we can see there that it's still obviously running in with our dye, and so I believe we've found that one there.
