Wet passenger footwell

[simonrk57]

Had this with my passat... Any ideas??

[zollaf]

no, there has never been an instance of any passat having a wet passenger footwell. i have no idea what could be happening


maybe, just maybe its a blocked plenum drain.

Door seals or perhaps check your pollen filter / plenum drains?

Good luck

Blumen VAG! I thought this would be sorted by now! Hey ho! Thanks guys

take your battery out and clean out the hole thus......

Had a similar experience myself this weekend. Heard a sloshing sound when.cornering, had aoil the next day and the battery area had 6 inches of water in it! Found a large plug under the battery and removed this to drain. Have left it out for.the.time being as I've not a chance.to take a proper look. Are the drain holes hard to find?

Thats one the other is near the servo

my A4 had this. Removed the battery and the plastic tray underneath it. found loads of old leaves and rubbish, cleared those and the drain holes under the servo (can be seen in the picture posts above) and the opposite side by poking a screwdriver in there in the lowest most part of the panel. The one immediately under the servo was the the worst by far - when it cleared soooo much water came out. Not been an issue since.

What, water in the passengers footwell of an A4! Bloody hell! never herd of that one...

Thanks all! It is just the same as my Passat! They covered the whole repair including a new CCM.

Is it in danger in the A4 or did they learn and put it above the water line?
