Found my main leak so what's the fix

[Nick Brough]

Hi,

After some research with my hose pipe, water is entering the mesh under the wipers is then finding it's way down the back of the bulkhead bracket (is this via the wiper spindles ) that holds the brake and clutch pedals exiting into the drivers foot well.

Any advice on how to fix it gratefully received.

Regards

Nick

Probably not getting through near the wiper spindles and in to the car. Water that does this tends to get into the centre of this panel and exit through the drain hoses. (Check these aren't blocked if you haven't since the whole section might be filling up with water...)

I'd spend time looking right in the corner of the panel where the bonnet hinge is. This area under the screen should be packed tightly with sikaflex. If it isn't then it leaks.

Good luck with it - I spent ages stopping these leaks.
