Right I think we have found the problem in the grommit, it was not in place so lets hope it was that I dont think any further water has leaked during the night so its just a case of getting the carpet dried and cleaqned up and then testing to see if any further water comes in, many thanks for all the help dont know what I would of done without you lot I certainly sh!t it when people started going on about the heater matrix and having to take out the dash, thanks again Regards Paul... | |

mate, you have just had the 2.0 16v fitted? the bulk head has to be modified hammered/cut to get this engine in, it could quite possibly be leaking through where the bulk head has been modified?i think they change it on the drivers side at the top just under the scuttle panel?worth looking into! | |

Right if the ecu was hanging out could this be the cause ? why I am asking is beacuse I have just had the engine fitted and the lad never had time to fit the ecu and is doing it tomorrow along with other jobs | |

if it were leaking on the outlet side of the matrix, then it would still be going through the most part of it, letting the blowers go over it before the hot water leaked. | |

What I dont understand is the fact that the heaters are working perfectly if the heater matrix was on the way out or if it was indeed broken would it the heaters be working | |
