    Hi,

    Newbie here and just wondering if anyone can help. I've had water ingress Audi A3 convertible 2010. The car had been sat for two months unused and upon return noticed there was excess condensation on windows. Long story short I then noticed there was water pooling in the rear passenger footwell, swirling around when driving. I also then noticed the front driver and passenger footwells were soggy too.
    I have used a wet and dry vac to get most out, used cat litter to soak up some, and had a fan heater running in there for the past two days.
    Having not earned since March I'm reluctant to book into the garage because of cost and trying to eliminate as many reasons as possible myself. Can anyone please advise possible/likely causes and how to check/rectify with pics of where to find or detailed explanation if possible ?
    I appreciate this is a big ask but any info gratefully received. TIA.

    Rear drains blocked inside rear wheel arches, take the plastic inner arch off and you will see them blocked at the top..
