Default wet footwell

Hi all,

persuaded the missus to hoover out the 75 today, when she came back in she said the carpet on your side is soaking wet, so I had a look and sure enough the drivers side footwell is absolutely sodden, all the other footwells are ok.

any ideas where its coming from as im useless at finding leaks

Hi Paul.
Do you have a sunroof ? also check the plenums as they could be full and water getting through the pollen filter into the foot well. Arctic .

As Klarzy says get the plenum drains checked asap.
With all the rain we've had recently it would take no time to flood the ECU out in the plenum chamber if it were blocked.
