under water
hi all-L reg laguna rxe auto both front wells are sodden-just got the car so must have been like this for months.Lifted pass side mat and soaked up about 5 bath towels worth and still loads there. Discovered water running inside the dvr side from just under the dash level.down the rubber then onto the inner sill then onto the mat. The headliners are wet all across the front and sides as far as the handgrips.A right mess - any clues please? Renault dealer prices require a new mortgage just to look at the thing!![:(]

Re: under water
I had a similar issue with my Citroen BX. I found that one of the drain pipes had got blocked. I got hold of some stiff wire, attached a bottle brush, and ran it up and down both drain pipes. As soon as I cleared one pipe my hand got soaking wet (and dirty with the crud that had blocked the pipe). I then made sure to clear the pipes on a weekly basis until there was no sign of any dirt coming out, and then every few months.

Yes, I am paranoid, but am I paranoid ENOUGH?

Our Clio is bone dry now, even in the heaviest of downpours.
Good luck,
Mick.
