Are there any known areas to look out for for water ingress in to the car?
Im fully aware of the areas in the chim but not the T350
The red oil problem i have took a twist today and now appears (maybe) to be a water leak(not engine)
My interior is red.
Thanks
Under the heat exchanger matrix where the blower motor is housed. I used to get drips in the PS footwell. Looked sealed from the top but when removed there was enough of a gap where the alloy plate had bowed that the seal was not in contact all the way round. Ambersil at the ready...Im fully aware of the areas in the chim but not the T350

Had a good old poke around the drivers area and checked the wiper frame 3 bolts took them out and resealed.
2 electric points appeard dry and the 3 cables but on removal of airbox the insulation over the bulkhead underneath the box is wet.
I assume this is normal as the insulation will hold water but thats all i could find.
I don't want to remove the insulation as i might not be able to replace it but that is the area in the car that's wet above the fusebox.
Ive had a new screen.

Did you look 'in' the airbox under the air filter for dripping oil? (onto the steering column/into the cabin).
Now it did'nt cross my mind but i fitted a oil pressure switch yesterday as the old one was leaking and it is very near the inlet of the steering shaft as you know.Airbox is dry.
Used the car today for the first time after 2 weeks today mainly for test runs after fitting new rad and M/C
Clutch is so much better now so there is some positives

Floor was dry this morning thats a first never been dry for the 2 months ive owned it.
Will just have to monitor it.
