Yes it's true...I have a sweaty Nob. I've never had a car in the past that sweats like mine. If I leave it out over night at this time of year the windscreen ends up dripping wet on the inside within a few hours and the smell is musty. I recon I could grow mushrooms in it inadvertently.
I don't have wet carpets and the floor was renewed and sealed recently. So why is this? What makes the Nob different?If I leave the windows down a little, all is well but as we all know any rain will be in within minutes.

In the meantime, get some silica kitty litter and an set of old tights. Fill the tights half full with kitty litter, twist and turn inside out. Leave on the centre console and you'll have something to soak up the moisture, and you can put them on the radiator to 'renovate' them time and time again.

Apart from typical floor pan reseal which everybody does, get a tube of tigerseal and go around the car to plug up the holes .
Check where the wishbones bushes bolt through the bulhead these have to be sealed from inside the footwell.
Check the L shaped access panels to footwell and door pillar are sealed all around inside the front arch, and are also sealed underneath.
Check the vertical footwell panel in the front wheel arch and make sure rivets are sealed and check underneath to make sure it is sealed to the chassis bar.
Check where cables and air con pipes come through to passenger footwell.
Check drivers side pedals where steering column, cables etc.. comes through and brake master cylinder.
You can also try in the engine underpan making a access panel to close up the battery access hole, close in the middle triangle rear of the tunnel, as water can spray up there and run back down the rear bulkhead and past the chassis bar.
Check rear window is sealed properly.
Has anybody ever tried creating a splash guard for the front wheel wells that goes around the wishbones like on the back, or any reason why its not a good idea?
