Peugeot 206 - water in the sill

[breamster]

Hi,

Ok it is a long shot but I seem to have a sill full of water judging by the sloshing sound when I accelerate and brake.

I can't see any drain holes in the sill - should there be? Is this a common fault?

Anyone have any ideas short of drilling a hole!

Thanks.

I`m pretty sure there are drain "slots" along the seam ? have a poke about with a screw driver.
If no luck drill a hole,jack it up to drain the water all out then squirt loads of wax oil in.

Thanks for that. Well I managed to find the channel buried under a load of gunk and got a screwdriver into it....which was dry?

Where on earth is the sloshing sound coming from?

Does it have a sunroof?

Could be a door with blocked drain holes.

Hi,

Thanks. No sunroof and I have checked the door. As of today I also have an ecu fault so at the moment I just want to scrap the bloody thing.

I will keep looking. I think perhaps another dig around the sill at the weekend.

I had the same problem with my 205gti ,it turned out to be the drian holes blocked up from new at the factory with sealer.look along the bottom edge of the sill their will be drain holes.
