Posted 22/11/09 10:15 PM Share Posted 22/11/09 10:15 PM I know some of you have had problems with a drain hose blocking and leaking water into the drivers footwell, but whats the fix. I hate taking the car to Ford for something like this. Only noticed since the hot weather and been in the car in thongs so driving barefoot. Hopefully not been going on to long.So anyone with the same problem whats the fix??? Im dreading a dash pull apart, bound to get rattles and broken clips and some scratches on the plastic.

I think tinyplums was having this happen quite alot however I dont know if they found a fix for it. I dont think it is caused by a blocked drainpipe though, I believe it has something to do with condensation forming on one of the pipes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted 23/11/09 01:12 AM Author Share Posted 23/11/09 01:12 AM (edited) wow brand new car with an inbuilt water feature. I thought that sh*t was reserved for Top Gear.Tinyplums, so yours still leas water and what are they going to do about it? Do they know the cause?I dont know if it will help but I jumped out the other day and noticed droplets formed from the dash into the footwell so got some pics. If service need it to happen I will jsut drive for an hour with the air con pumping before arriving.
