308 water leak in foot well, Murphyslaw

[@marcinnowakowski997]

I've got the same issue in my 307 and probably it's the same reason - you've helped a lot in sorting off tools list and how to begin with. Cheers!

[@murphyslaw2020]

Hope it helps sort your problem

[@benrosser893]

Bought one of thoes bendy things off amazon for £5.... Both sides were blocked and that thing was perfect for the job... Thanks for this video as would have never worked it out on my own 👍👍

[@murphyslaw2020]

No worries glad you got sorted

[@benrosser893]

Well I think I have will soon find out when it pisses down Saturday 😂

[@BugPowderDust]

Last night, massive rain and I had a swimming pool on drivers side footwell. This will be super helpful, thankyou!!

[@murphyslaw2020]

Let us know how you get on

[@BugPowderDust]

​@@murphyslaw2020I followed the instructions, no debris or blockages but the only thing I didn't have was a long pokey thing to push down the drain hole. Using a watering can, could check that water did drain down by the tyre as you showed but perhaps there is a minor blockage I need to clear. The pollen filters were wet, and the cap that you remove to get to the filter was very wet.

[@murphyslaw2020]

​@BugPowderDust you can get that tool on amazon for a little as a 5 euro just type in grab tool

[@scotlandfaeabove]

have this exact problem on my sons car, thought it was the door seal. I replaced that but water was still coming in, wish I'd seen this video first. Thanks so much.

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad it worked for you. Thanks for the comment

[@AlanMarshall-p1j]

Had the same problem. Sorted thanks to your video. Had a problem getting the plastic cover away from the windscreen and the wiper mechanism gets in the way when trying to clear out the bung on the drivers side but got there in the end Cheers

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad you got sorted 👍

I was looking months for such a video for mine 308 t9. Thanks a lot

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad it helped you

[@DarnWhippets]

Lifesaver. Top work that man, and thanks for the video now.

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad to help

[@mrman9561]

Thanks for the heads up sods law same thing happened, majority of the cleaning done the driver's side did not have the plastic clip but the I had drain cable which I used and helped the water flush through wasn't that much there but was clean. Px side was the worst and the and that filter was blocked and you could see the water just sitting there At least nice and cleaned an no water hopefully now n a few days or so that should dry out and it should be all ok Thanks again for the video

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad it helped

You saved me 🙏🏻

[@murphyslaw2020]

Glad to have helped

[@danielscheuch]

Thanks for this, our passenger side could have been used for Olympic diving there was so much water. How did you end up drying the carpet and foam? I have the carpet up and have been moping it and squeezing the foam. Have a fan on it too

[@murphyslaw2020]

That's the only way really to dry it out .it takes ages and feels like the water just keeps on coming. I normally run the car with the heating on and the carpet propped up and a window a little bit down

[@RobertMoloney]

@@murphyslaw2020 I used a vax carpet washer to suck out as much as I could get, not soggy anymore, still wet though!

[@murphyslaw2020]

@@RobertMoloney a wet is great we have one but thankfully i don't have to use it that much

[@RobertMoloney]

@@murphyslaw2020 ha ha, still not sure I found the reason the back seat foot wells are soaking on my 407. I tried the back door seals. I tried the boot. And I eventually got the windscreen wipers off (using a crow bar!!! Carefully, leveraged against itself). I had trouble getting the grill back (there seems to be a gap between it and the windscreen) in and there didn't seem to be any grommets or channels, just leaf mulch. But I got a coathanger through it all and out to the ground below. Still not sure that was right. Anyway, I had my fun!

[@MrShikivile]

Where did you bought this wire to clean those holes? Link?

[@murphyslaw2020]

Hope this helps. I got mine from a parts shop but this is very similar

[@iainkaleda8141]

I've a similar problem but the water in mine seems to be coming from the bottom of the heater box itself. Pollen filters are dry but there's a steady drip from the bottom of the heater box whenever I have the heat and AC on. Any ideas? It's clean water makes me think it's condensate. The drain for the AC is clear

[@murphyslaw2020]

Maybe the heater box is blocked and blocked Access to the vent. Try what I did in the video the water can get into the heater box from there

[@alp7891]

How did drying the carpet go?

[@murphyslaw2020]

It takes weeks to dry 💯

[@racalik]

I have literally water flowing around inside the car somewhere, during the rainy season, can it also be caused by this? This year I noticed the carpet is getting soaked inside as well, similar to your situation, so it got worse. Or are there any other water outlets under the car? 307 sw

[@murphyslaw2020]

If I recall the 207 and 307 had a Similar problem to the video you could hear the water moving around under the wipers when you Drove the car

[@racalik]

@@murphyslaw2020 thanks for the reply! I kind of hear it more directly under the drivers seat, and flowing around the whole car, possibly inside the sill? but im not sure if this is possible, hard to locate it by ear. I need to try and what you've shown here for starters, there surely is a lot of junk there

[@murphyslaw2020]

The water can fill up under the wiper( because the vents are blocked)and then run inside the car and fill up the footwell.

[@christopherfernandes1941]

Struggling to get the bolts off the wiper!

[@murphyslaw2020]

Just the bolt or trying to get the wiper arm off

[@kartavyagoswami8052]

I removed the but from wipers but they r still not coming off

[@murphyslaw2020]

Hi put the nut back on a little bit. And then try pull them up it can take abit to pull them some wd40 can help. They rust ( not rust ) if it's really bad you may need a pullers

[@Valmacaron]

Hello everyone, I have this problem on my 308. I try to see with a bottle of water where it is stuck. It appears the right side is okay because the water is dropping with the tyre hole but on the left side it doesn’t. However i am not sure if the water on the left side is supposed to evacuate on the right or left side. I would be glad if someone can give me that information. Thank you

[@murphyslaw2020]

Hi there is a vent on both sides if I recall correctly try cleaning them out.
