Ok, I really need help to nut this thing out. My 99 SC is leaking on my foot when it rains. Best I can track is its coming from high on the right hand side. It drips down on my right foot when I drive. The carpet is soaking wet & it stinks!
I don't *think* its the windscreen seal but I guess it could be but how would I get up in there to see?
Others have mentioned the air con vents. Now this could be something. Yesterday I turned all the vents so they where closed & put it so the air was blowing towards my feet (to dry & help dry it out!) and I *think* the drip isn't as bad but it is still coming in.

I have also read something about a seal to do with the wipers that can perish & it s a bugger to get to / replace etc. Anyone know what this could be?

Now the thing I have noticed is it seems the water pools. I can get nothing & then go around a left hand corner & I will get a sudden splash on my foot, still in the form of drips but alot more then just a drip if you can get what I mean..

Please if you have any ideas of where to look or who to even take it too to figure it out I would really appreciate it. The wet season & a leaky car is not going to end well!

Do you have a sun roof? I'd look at the drain pipes from that if you have.

Hi Fiona,

I've got the same problem - no sunroof but a leak pretty high up under the windscreen which is dripping into the passenger side footwell.

I'm probably going to get the windscren out to check its not the rubber.

This is a royal pain in the a55 having to dry the carpets out all the time.

Will let you know how I get on.

Rob

Really late update haha..

I ended up getting the windscreen replaced and that did solve the drip on the foot but I still have water getting in somehow. Its driving me insane!

My leak came from a drain hole at the base of the windscreen on the driver's side. The plastic drain pipe had come off. From memory, I think that hole was simply plugged up.

Mine had same problem. By accident I found the windscreen squirters were loose. Sealed them up with a little bit of black sealant and job done
