Wet Toyota Floorboard FIX -Matrix-Vibe-Corolla-Camry

[@robertmcfadden4708]

Thank you for making a video that's short, gets straight to the point and shows exactly what needs to be done! You just solved a problem I've been having for over a month now. I was about to take my car to a mechanic and was going to cost me at least $50 for them just to look at! Thanks for the help I appreciate it 100%

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. This issue lasted far longer than a month for me. So simple once you know.

[@levipankey]

I'm having a similar issue but it's not leaking from that hose I checked, it's coming from closer to behind the glove box, any ideas?

[@elnosworld9893]

Well thank you I appreciate it because now it’s actually leaking even when I turn my heat on but basically I was using my defrost and I was putting my temperature at low and then just using the fan which acted very much like the air conditioner even though it wasn’t turning Aceon And all of a sudden it just started pouring water everywhere especially when I turn either to the left or the right like it’s just dumping and emptying out on my carpet so the front and the back is completely wet and this has been going on for at least a week or two Which of course in the long term is going to be a real problem if I don’t get it taken care of so I had actually contacted in a guy who does some mechanical work for me and he said that it had something to do with my condenser but I think maybe the problem is exactly what you were having but I’ll have to look at it during daytime hours Hopefully I’ll be able to clear this problem up as soon as possible I happen to live in my car I’ve been living in my car for seven years and I have a 2015 Toyota Corolla So it might’ve been leaking a lot longer than I was aware of because I have a box or did have a box in the back floorboard on the passenger side that was covered in mold underneath and two years ago I ended up in the hospital in ammonia so that might’ve been the problem is that all this time it’s been leaking it just got really bad recently that enough to notice her Makes it really hard when you have to defrost your windows and all you hear is trickling of waters like somebody turn the faucet on low as soon as you put the heat on

[@estebanalvarez983]

I was prepared to take the car into the shop if I couldn’t resolve the issue myself. Hopped on google to look up ac related condensation/leaks and found this video. So easy and fast with the added tip about the floorboard drain plugs that I had no idea about. Thanks so much for taking your time to share this!

[@sanityorlove]

My man thank you!! Worked like a dream on my 2007 Matrix. I know it's nothing but I feel like a badass mechanic now 😂💪🏼

[@CruzDX]

This was literally the problem and we reconnected the pipe. You are my hero!

[@jamesonorio7598]

The ENTIRE floorboard of a family member's 2000 Camry has been sopping wet on and off for a while. We've had no rain for 2 weeks, so it isn't the windshield or sunroof. We watched this video. The tube was completely stopped up! At Least a gallon of water dumped out! Your suggestion worked! Fixed in TEN MINUTES!! Thank you!!!

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help! It's a real problem to have that water on the floor.

[@7771ham]

I have the same issue with my 2001 Toyota Camry. Which side is the hose on? The passenger or the drivers side? My entire floorboard is soaked just like yours!

[@perryscottd]

Here i am, 9 years later and thanking you for saving me $$$ to have someone at a shop do this. Thank you for the clear and to the point video.

[@LandtoHouse]

From what I can see this is a timeless toyota issue. 20 years of drain hose disconnects. Happy to help save you money.

[@Calcorex]

Hey man i know I'm about a decade late but this just help me out so much. I was getting wet carpets on both the passenger and driver stuff and every time I turned i could hear the water. I reconnected the hose just now. I popped off the passenger side rubber seal and it dripped a little like in the video but when i popped off the driver side one it immediately started draining and i rolled from under the car with the biggest smile. Dude thank you!! I need this car for work✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽

[@RiseOrRelinquish]

Thanks so much. I have been plagued by this problem the last few months with my 2012 Camry SE. Both front passenger and rear passenger were completely soaked with 3/4" of water. Thought maybe at first I let my windows down or it was leaking from the sunroof. At first when I watched your video I went out and ran my AC full blast for about 15 mins to see if it was dripping down from beneath the car. Sure enough, no water was dripping from the AC drain line! I pulled back the front passenger side flooring and sure enough, there it was. The hose was completely out of the rubber grommet.I shoved it back in and put some RTV silicone around it, hopefully it will stay in place now. I had to tear out all the sound dampening material from under the carpeting, now just waiting for it to dry. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

[@christopherjones2695]

This video saved my bacon. Out on vacation in high desert with soggy floorboards. Found the drain hose wasn't threaded through floor. Reinserted, pulled all the undercarriage plugs and squeezed out the water just as shown in the video. Much thanks for this Toyota tip.

[@LandtoHouse]

+Christopher Jones happy to help! This issue bothered me for a month. Simple fix that I think toyota should work on. :) enjoy vacation.

Ten years later still saving lives my freind

[@elizabethwarden8753]

I have a 2004 and have been having the same problem, Living in Florida we have the AC going almost all of the time. This looks easy enough for me to try. Single mom on elementary school pay check = someone with zero money to spare. Thank you for taking the time t make this video! I saw two others fix this problem , but they did not show the drain hole under the car. That is great to know about.

[@LandtoHouse]

+Elizabeth Warden I'm happy to know that my video helped. This is one of those fixes that anyone can do.

[@jmj227]

Saved me a trip to the dealer. I have very thick rubber floor mats that have been hiding the water until it became enough to slosh around. I've had my matrix for 6 years and this is the second time this happened and the first time I had a mechanic fix it but I didn't know what he did. Thank you!

[@LandtoHouse]

+jmj227 It can definitely build up a lot of water in a hurry. a real headache. I'm happy to help. It's a rather Simple Solution when you know what to do

[@jmj227]

Yeah, I had been smelling a musty smell for a while but couldn't figure out why. On a very hot day when I had been running the A/C heavily, I parked on a hill and all the water ran to the back and I finally saw all the water. I now have a dehumidifier running inside the car to dry it all up.

[@LandtoHouse]

+jmj227 those rubber plugs help a lot to drain the large puddle. Mine was so bad that it started to puddle across into the back seat.

[@tiaalcini1937]

Thought my wet floor in my 07matrix was gunna be a big problem-found your video in the car and fixed the tube&I started draininf the floor by the time my bf out of the gas station store!! THANKS SOOOOO MUCH!!

[@LandtoHouse]

You are very welcome! I struggled with this issue for over a month before realizing what the issue was. Nothing like all your stuff getting wet because someone kicked a small tube. Happy to help.

[@brianwatson2693]

Thanks for a good, concise video that wasn't 20 minutes long. It was to the point. Thank you!

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help!

[@cristalmclaughlin4878]

I have a 99 Toyota Camry .. and woke up to this damn floor flooded .. found the hose in the front. Ty so much!!! U saved me so much money 💰

[@bbo40]

Just found water on my floor this morning! Racking my brain on the problem ??? Your video fixed my problem I did not even know was a problem. Thumbs up .....Thumbs up .......Thumbs up

[@LandtoHouse]

Nice to hear your floorboards will be dry again!

[@kybe13]

OMG!!!! Thank you so much!!! I was able to fix my 2003 Corolla. I was afraid I would have to pay $$$. You dear Sir are a lifesaver!!!🤗🤗🤗

[@LandtoHouse]

It really is a simple fix. Happy to help. Glad you didn't have to spend money at a dealership

[@tannerhoke]

My hero. My 2005 Matrix was leaking like crazy! Thank you. Still no major maintenance issues in 2023 with 240k miles.

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. I was driving my 06 matrix until last week when a flatbed truck smashed it. 233k miles.

[@tannerhoke]

@@LandtoHouse Thank god you survived. It served you well to the last mile

[@daniellucero1414]

Thanking you brother I have such a hard time finding info on the Toyota matrix and you explain everything in a simple understanding way thanks man should post more videos of the toyota matrix

[@Carkebe]

Hey, just wanted to say thank you for this video. It was the first video I looked up on KZbin regarding this issue. Lots of forums TOLD me what to do, but I needed the visual as I am not terribly mechanically inclined. Sure enough, I did everything you said in the video, and the AC hose was indeed totally off the port! All fixed now; you saved me a lot of $. It's much appreciated! :)

[@LandtoHouse]

I hear you. KZbin is one of the first places that I go for finding out what to do on a project or issue. This one was so annoying I just had to share when I learned what to do.

[@gi66l3z5]

I'd like to leave a BIG thank you...I wasn't sure what was leaking in the car, but after seeing your video, I went right to the hose after pulling the carpet back and there it was...once again...Thank You!!! :)

[@LandtoHouse]

It's a pretty easy fix if you know what to look for. Happy to help.

[@timothyjewett625]

Thanks a bunch! This helped fix my 2010 Corolla, it has the flashing vsc light and traction control light was constant, and check engine light, tried to reset the lights, but the problem persisted. This obviously was bigger than some signal lights, checked the tube, made sure the connections were tight, no more light! Thanks again!!

[@IndicamGuy]

This was exactly what happened to the Corolla and thanks to you, it was an extremely easy fix. Thanks

[@LandtoHouse]

It can be annoying if you dont know what to fix. Luckily this one is easy. Happy to help.

[@UltimateSteevil]

what year Corolla mate? I've got a '97 and it gets water on the passenger side floor pan

[@LandtoHouse]

This issue has been in place for at least 20 years. Your car likely has that tube.

[@UltimateSteevil]

@@LandtoHouse i'm going hardcore on it to find the cause in the next week....... i'll let you know what it turns out to be.

[@hoodheisenberg]

I changed the oil, filter, then drain and filled the transmission on my girlfriends matrix. She mentioned the AC leaking.. your video was exactly her problem. Prior person had sold the car after being told their "heater core" was clogged and would be 3k+ to fix. Well I took a peak, sure enough- hose wasn't hooked up 😂😂😂👍 she is still in shock

[@LandtoHouse]

HA well now you know! Much cheaper fix.

[@cindybaker5204]

Thank you very much!! Had the same problem with my 2007 Toyota Matrix. My father appreciated your help as he was getting frustrated trying to figure out the problem.. Thank you again!!

[@LandtoHouse]

+Cindy Baker I feel his frustration. When I first had the lake form in the floorboard it drove me crazy (short trip). Happy to help.

[@onikawhispers7341]

Thank you so much for that simple fix for a perplexing problem! You and KZbin ROCKS!

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. Nothing like stepping into a pond .... inside the car. haha

[@Atm474]

Bro you saved my life, there was a small tropical storm yesterday. This morning in my backseat was literally 2 to 3 inches of water. A d it's a een going on fore er thank you

[@trisharasor4221]

Thank you so much. I knew my hose is broken but wasn't sure if I could replace it myself! THANK YOU!!!

[@s.c.7393]

Your video was awesome! So helpful to my dad and myself! We got his Matrix fixed up in no time! What a dumb design by Toyota! Thanks again!

[@nylawal1]

Your Video is a life saver. I didn't have to spend a dime especially with technicians that do a lot of guess work.... change this change that! Kudos!

[@LandtoHouse]

I hear you. This is such an easy fix. There is no need to go to the shop if you know whats going on.

[@derekgrant9766]

Thank you so much ! You saved us on our 2011 Toyota Corolla ! It worked!! You saved us a trip to the shop👍

[@LandtoHouse]

That's great. I'm happy it fixed your problem. Seems like this has been an issue with Toyota for about 20 years

[@taylorbhope]

Thank you for this!!! That was the issue in my gf's car and has been for 4 months now, can't believe it's that easy!

[@LandtoHouse]

It is so easy to fix. .... Also so easy to cause haha. Hope this fixes all your issues.

[@KelaniCChan]

Just did this to my 2008 Toyota Corolla. Thank you! This video was incredibly helpful. What a dumb place to put a hose that is so easily disconnected!

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. This issue has been going on for so long. It really is a dumb place to have an AC hose.

[@ryanhenderson6953]

This helped me!!! The people who installed my ac didn’t put the hose back through that hole. Flooded my passenger side… uggggh, glad it was a quick fix though

[@LandtoHouse]

It's amazing how quickly the floorboard can fill up with water.

[@sally4503]

Thank you so very much! My husband sent me your video and it will help us so much to fix our Toyota Corolla.

[@LandtoHouse]

+Ingrid Tapia great! Yes such a simple fix and it saves you from having a lake in the floorboard.

[@Alvinomatthew]

7 years later and this vid helped me a lot! thank you!

[@HIM.9]

Thank you so much dude! My car's right passenger seat and back seat on the right side floor had been submerged by an inch or two of water. I put the hose back in place and soaked out the water with a towel. I'm gonna wait for my day off to shampoo the floor xD Thanks so much for the help man!

[@LandtoHouse]

+xDr.DeathDefyingx nice to help! That floor lake is a real bummer!

[@carlociccone1999]

I should have looked for this BEFORE I took my seats out. This was exactly my problem, thank you for posting this!

[@LandtoHouse]

Oh wow. That was a lot of work. Yes this little hose can make a large lake in the floorboard!

[@Rielle212]

Thank you so much for this! I have an 08 Corolla, and the tube is completely missing. I have no idea what happened. I stuck a water bottle underneath the top part where the water is coming out for now. This video was a huge help! :)

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. It sure can be a pain when the car floor is a lake.

[@masterphotog4131]

Thanks for helping out many people with similar issues. Keep up the good work!

[@LandtoHouse]

+Kathy Thompson I am happy to help. A simple solution to an annoying problem.

[@LeeMinardi]

The tube in my Coralla (0:46) was connected so that wasn't the roblem. I removed it and ran water through it in my kitchen sink. A big glob of leaves and stuff came out! Put it back together. All good. Thanks for the video.

[@LandtoHouse]

At least its fixed! Nice to know that debris can get down that far.

[@mynameishere4427]

Once you pull the two black rubber seals from the bottom. Cut a 1”x5” strip of cloth, insert 3 inches of each cloth inside each of the two holes & trap the inserted part under the floor’s wet pad. Let the remaining part of the cloth hang down from the hole & see it draining the water out & dripping it out on the ground .

[@a-b-c-d-q-w-e-r-t-y]

[@hayleyferguson5284]

I will take a look for this in my 2018 Toyota Corolla Ascent. Just sucked the water out of my passenger floorboard and blow dried. We have just had a bunch of rain. So maybe a door stopper problem. Thank you for your video.

[@Enigma_V8]

Thank you!! 2014 Corolla here; my lower tube was actually clogged for some reason. Blew it out with compressed air and no more flooding inside!

[@LandtoHouse]

+Chris Kleczynski I'm not really sure what clogs that pipe. There have been a few others mentioning that same problem. I'm glad it's fixed it sure is annoying to have all that water everywhere.

[@EnigmaV8]

Yeah seemed very odd considering how clean it was. Only think I can think is some insects crawled in there, but I didn't seem much come out when I blew it out(but it was fairly dark). Only other thing I could think is there's an occasional defect in the rubber of that portion and forceful blowing tears open the defect like a valve.

[@LandtoHouse]

That does make sense. Bugs and mice seem to get into all kinds of places that we dont want them.

[@annbrush2435]

Exactly the problem on my 2007 Corolla, thanks a bunch, huge headache solved.

[@guitarTennisCarHomeFixFlying]

thanks it worked, figure I saved $100 to $150, thanks! I had to drive mine for about 10 minutes b4 my vsc, trac , and ck engine light came off, after I cleared the blockage of my condensation tube, the line drained almost a quart of water, I heard it sloshing around behind the dash in the evaporator area. I also had a wet carpet passenger side and had to unblock the a/c condensation line, I just had to peel the carpet back next to the console, it was blocked more where the hose emptied to the ground, probably a bug nest? 2010 toyota matrix, also a button under the dash at steering wheel to cut off the remote air pressure system I think. The obs port is nx to the hood release pull in the lower part of the plastic dash, it says obs but is hard to see unless you are looking for it. I might paint the recessed letters (obs) in red or white so easier to see.

[@ABOWFishing]

I had the same problem, and I knew where the water was leaking from. Turns out my car didn’t even have the hose in the first place! Just gotta find one now, thanks

[@lundion]

Holy crap, that was easy! Thanks a million for making this video 😮

[@AmeriFanPicker]

How does that explain the rear floor??? Is the water just wicking back to the back????

[@adeyemithomas3287]

Thanks for the video. I had a similar experience with my 2007 Matrix. It was fixed by the Technician exactly the same way you indicated.

[@CANADIANINDO]

Thanks a lot for sharing this. I put the hose back up and put some tape around the hose and the plastic housing to hold it up.

You are very welcome! I understand about losing your mind! This bothered me for over a month before I figured it out. Nothing like sitting in a lake every time you drive. Be sure to let people with big feet know not to kick up that far under the dash. :)

Hey there, I have a Matrix and have the same problem. But it happens after the rain. I checked my sun roof drain holes and ran weed wacker string down no clogs. Thought it would solve the problem - rained today all day and floor is soaked. Any thoughts? Car is not being driven at this time.

[@TheShamusOfSlots]

Great information. Explains why it is so wet!

[@georgepavlik9055]

There's also a very similar rubber tube draining under your car. Sometimes that will become clogged and you can use like weed eater line to fish up there and clear it, or if you have a shop vac you can suck it clear.

[@levipankey]

I'm having a similar issue but it's coming from closer to the back of glove box, any ideas? I checked the hose and it's still connected and not leaking at all.

You should have those rubber stoppers too. That helps to drain the water. .... Yes what a bad design! anyone with large feet will have this issue often.

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. This one was annoying for me when it first happened. Such an easy fix.

[@JohnCBriggs]

I was so confused about why the carpets were wet. Never occurred to me that AC condensate was the issue.

[@LandtoHouse]

Yes. I first thought that the windshield was leaking. But that did not make sense after a few weeks with little to no rain.

[@johnbriggs7514]

I assumed it was rusted floor pan (which I experienced in cars for the 1970's). But looking at the condition of the metal in the car, that seemed unlikely. But one quick Google of "Wet carpets in Corolla" brought up the answer.

[@d.blondel7708]

Thanks for this, it saved me a trip to the mechanic with my 2004 Toyota Corolla! Definitely seems a design flaw on the part of the engineers, to have the hose so easily knocked out like that.

[@LandtoHouse]

+D. Blondel happy to help. It's been a design flaw for over 10 years in my opinion. There are thousands of people having this problem.

[@d.blondel7708]

I pulled out the rubber "stoppers" under the floorboards, but even 3 days later, when I press around the hole, a little water comes out, and the carpet still seems pretty sodden. On these hot North Carolina days with my car in the sun all day with the windows closed, it's like an oven in there and I would've hoped that would dry out the carpet, but it doesn't seem to have completely done so, so far. Any tips for further drying out the floorboard carpets? How long should I leave the stoppers out for? I've been putting them back in when it's rainy weather, b/c of the humidity.

[@LandtoHouse]

+D. Blondel it took my car at least 3 weeks to get dry. But then it was wet for 3 months. Make sure that hose is tightly installed so no water is getting to the floor. You might put the plugs in while driving and pull them when parked.

[@d.blondel7708]

Thanks!

I am about to try this on my 08 Toyota Corolla, the hose has definitely become separated. Thanks so much for this video :)

It is amazing how fast the car fills up with water. Happy to help.

[@Hufflandcompany]

Thanks dude! Solved a 6 month mystery!

[@michaelwenzel]

Thanks for posting this. Exactly my problem. Now just drying out all the stuffing.

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help. It is a simple fix but annoying to take care of.

Got some water on the right rear passenge floor . No idea how happened, maybe rubbers failing on the door or maybe even this ac. Not sure. I live in a rainy area, rains every fkng day. Iam fed up

Does anyone know why a driver side floorboard would be leaking on Toyota Camry 2005. It happens when sitting I've checked the drain line for AC not the problem and blew out the sunroof drain. Still no luck

I am going to try this in my 2006 Toyota Solara Convertible. Thank you so much for posting this!!!

[@LandtoHouse]

I am not sure if that model has the same hose placement but its well worth a look. Hope it helps.

I have the same problem in a Corolla 2014, Thank you sooooo much for taking the time

[@LandtoHouse]

Happy to help! From what I have gathered this issue has been going on for over 20 years.

[@OladejiYemiJoshua]

You are a lifesaver! Thank you so very much! This has been bugging me for months!

[@LandtoHouse]

+Oladeji Yemi-Joshua I am happy to help. It sure is annoying to have all that water in the floor.

[@southwestAZ]

ever since I bought a Toyota Corolla le 2005 car and it does have an open window sunroof but I don't see any water coming thought the roof & when it rain's i get water in the one side back passager area can you help ?

[@LandtoHouse]

You might have a sun roof leak? With my car I only use the AC during rain and that is when this hose issue started.

My moms bf has a 98 toyota corola and does not have that hose in that location. What else could it be???

[@LandtoHouse]

I wonder if the hose is located some other place?
