Got some water getting in around my pedals, I used to get this, but not often at all, and was only a tiny bit so never really bothered. Today though I got in the car (been raining all night) dry. Been raining at whilst I was at work, came out, and the arena below the pedals was really wet. Not 100% sure where it is coming from but there was dribbles of water on the backwall bit where the pedals come down, so it seems to me its comming from up there.

I thought it would be something under the scuttle blocking something, but I removed all that to find it all seems to be fine. Any ideas where it could be coming from?

Cheers, Rab.

When it really throws it down i have a puddle in the drivers side. The rain is collecting at the bottom front of the drivers door and coming in that way. As my car is stripped, i've just removed the bung and let it drain out. I really am not that bother about that car

The grommet for the loom seems fine. So must be something else.

I cant see any way for it to get in through the door either.

I get a little bit of water in when I use a jet wash. Might go put a £1 in and spray areas till I see what bit its comming from.

Weird thing is, it is not getting in every time it rains... just some times :s
