    How do,

    Got Wet carpet on the passenger side rear, looks to been collecting slowly for a while.

    issue looks to be rear water feed, hose has disconnected just under the ECU (in side the housing looks dry), Car is mostly on the drive - slopping down.

    So water wet on the front, but mostly to the rear.

    I have the passenger side trim off, both seats out (interesting - my seats are heated (got a green plug!) - but no loom to connect to in the car !!! ... possible project on the horizon).

    main trim on the gearbox tunnel off (both sides)

    Would like to lift all the carpet out and check the front drivers side - but its secured behind the peddles ? , plus the side trim is secured by the bonnet release - and does not want to budge.

    Got a de-humidifier in at the moment - after running a vax over the carpet .

    any assistance well come !

    Cheers, yep checked those - all clear.

    Looks to be the Rear feed for the washer system, which has not worked for ages ..... now i know where the @@@ water had gone.

    I'm changing the bungs in the floor pad while the carpet is up, so got them all checked apart from the drivers side.

    carpet looks to be fully behind the pedals, didn't want to unbolt these ... might take the change and leave the last one.

    its had three weeks of in bits, running the de-humidifier for a few hours every other day (used two towels to mop up water - not as bad a some .. but enough)

    I've purchased image.jpg four of these from fleebay .. only 2.25 each, uses a 9v battery - going to strip two - and join the cables together for a longer length (tested and ~@@ wow its loud), plan to place it - either under the seat in the frame or under the dash. For a heads up water leak alarm. - will post more pics if anyone wants to see .
