Volkswagen Caddy 2013 | Water Leak in Windscreen

Video transcript

0:00 OK, so my colleague's just going to put up some air behind the screen, so we can see where it's leaking. So there we go. You can see all the bubbles coming through, and it goes all the way down as well. There we go, we've got more bubbles out. And then if we quickly jump that into the other side, we'll quickly spray our bubble solution on this side here.

0:38 We've got obviously off at the top, so we need to screen reset. So as you can see, we've got a lot of holes around the screen. Right, okay, so obviously on the inside it's very very mouldy, so it's going to need a good double deep clean and an odour kill, probably twice, because of the amount of mould spores. And it's all the way through, even on the tailgate passenger side as well. Up underneath the dashboard, it's actually furry under the dashboard. And we've got these bits here, there's a big puddle of water down

1:48 in, well, on the drivers rear footwell as well. So as we can see, big puddle of water there as well. And so it's a case of, I don't know if you want us to put an estimate together, and because this one is going to be a bit of a, how can you put it, uneconomical to fix. And but obviously it's down to yourself, if you like to give us a contact call once you obviously watch the video, and then obviously we'll take it from there what we're going to do. Okay.

This VW Caddy was suffering with water on the floor in the front. An inspection revealed that the windscreen was leaking quite badly.

Solution: There is nothing wrong with the screen, but it will need to be refitted. If you have had a replacement screen that was badly fitted, you can go back to the windscreen company for redress. However, on some vehicles, the factory fitted screen can come unbonded over time, it shouldn't happen, but it does. A visit to a screen fitting company will sort this problem, but you will have to pay for it yourself, unless the vehicle is still in warranty.
