dont forget, could be a dodgy dizzy cap & rotor arm. If you're gonna change plugs and leads then might aswell change those too for the extra few quid, no point havin brand new parts when you got old parts creaking away ;)

The water was leaking through the split in my rain tray and coming through the pollen filter. The warer then went through the fan and out into the Drivers Side Carpet... :| Not very Cool. If you have the same problem as me then be careful when getting another rein-tray from a scrappy. They are flimsy as fuck. The scuttle comes off by 5 phillips screws once you've taken off your window wipers. Then it detaches in 2 parts. Easy! Let me know how you get on :)

I cured my Leak. Basically, I had a 4 inch split along the Rain Tray under the scuttle panel. Not suprised really, as the material the rain tray is made from is erm... shoot. Still. I'll try and find the thread :thumbs:

Mines in the passenger side and it settles on the shelf below the glovebox. When I turn a corner if I have a passenger they get soaked :lol:

I just can't be bothered to fix it at the mo. It's been going on for 2 years :lol:

lol :rolleyes:


I have water in my passenger footwell too, I just haven't got round to fixing it yet lol. If you manage to sort it can you let me know how you did it?
Thanks

You might not need new anything, I had that problem and it turned out my HT leads had got a bit damp. I just dried the ends off and squirted some maintenance oil on them and they were fine :thumbs:

Started the car this morning everything was ok like normal, but today it was pissing it down. I was driving and put it in 3rd at about 30mph and it kept juddering like it was going to stall, so I put it in second and it did the same... After a while and after me looking like I can't drive it seemed to be ok. Is it because it was wet? Also, I've notcied that theres some water coming in from the right of the footwell..

It's a corsa 1.2 8v just done 95k. Please help :wave::thumbs:
