Water, Water Everywhere!

[DiscoBoi2002]

I have a 2005 LR3 SE....

There is water coming in by the OBD connector in the driver's footwell...by the front map lights, and the rear ones.... !?!??!

Why?

It's going in for service on Wednesday...

Any ideas?

The headliner isn't wet...but it's coming in through the lights on ceiling, but the lights show no residual moisture and have not burned out.


And we're not talking a couple drops...It pours in the car.

There's a TSB for pre-07 models having valves on the ends of the sunroof drain tubes which can become clogged & leak inside the cabin, to fix the dealer snips the valves at the tube ends off. Might be what's going on with yours

also the a pillar trim panels break and leak inside, yo uneed to clean them up and put sealant in the right place

actuall yif you get a philips screwdriver and a flashlight you can take the two screws on the bottom of the trim panel on the driver side and look up under
the dash and see the sunroof drain tube. pull the hose out and the little elbow off of the firewall and clean it out and snip the tip so its open in the end.

on the passenger side take a flat piece of metal or try a piece of plastic and then push up on the air intake trim piece. you have to push the tabs up a bit and pull out hte cover, underneath the rubber intake cover there is a big sponge, pull that out and cut the little drain tube pour water down the drain tube to flush out the crap. or spray some high powered air into it.

take the sponge and cut a channel into it so the water will go somewhere.

get the dealership to clean out all the water and leave it there for a few days to dry or our else its lots of problems with the electronics.
