Ray,
Wow. you typed your message on the list before I could. You had the same is=
sue that just happend to me?. Last week I had what appeared to be 2" of wa=
ter in just in my passenger foot well after a rain storm. Thought it was a =
door that was not closed properly but didnt see how. Car was slightly tilte=
d to that side as I remember it so maybe it was a focused area for collecti=
on. I had to bail it out and placed a dehumidifier inside the car along wit=
h some fans to help dry it out completely. PITA!
Again yesterday, normally I wash my car at home, but needed to get the car =
washed quick while away on business and when I left the carwash, I took a r=
ight turn out the exit and about a cup of water came out under the dash on =
the drivers side only ? Shoes got real wet. Every right turn I took for a w=
hile, it would release more water???? 10-12 oz total is what finally came o=
ut I'd say.
Can any one guide me also as what to look at for as a possible solution to =
this? Where do I look for these drain lines that might be clogged, Inside =
under the dash or in the engine bay?
TIA

r, at least I don't think she has been swimming, and
certainly not without my permission. Some evidence of sand in her
pockets, but more importantly, she has LOTS OF WATER in the passenger
footwells (front & rear). What gives?
My drain lines appear to be clear, and window seals are tight. I've
recently noticed water dripping on my Cannon mats from under the dash,
especially under hard cornering , but have not yet torn the
interior apart to find the culprit. My old 90Q20v needed an annual exam
to have the defrost/dehumidifier drain line (pinch diaphragm tube, for
lack of a better description) cleaned out. Failure to do so caused
water to back up in the line and dump on my foot from under the dash.
But, I can't find such a line under the S6 . . . Any ideas?
TIA,
