Wet footwell, drivers side, w. residue... Matrix?

[knicko]

I have a similar problem started a while ago but mine is passenger side only, definitely not screen related as have had a new one fitted, last year which is when the problem started it seems to be only when it rains , seems to run from front right hand side of foot well, next to center console can find nothing obvious and although the heater works fine have noticed recently that the needle takes a fair time to move and then very slowly even on a journey of twenty miles or so, no loss of fluids, rear wiper washer works fine, so baffled any help appreciated.

Check your Ariel lead is not tracking rain water from inner wing space into passenger footwell. Check out one of my previous posts (sorry don't know how to attach link to this reply) where I describe the problem and remedy in more detail.

This might explain the remedy a little better than my previous link ... assuming it is the ariel lead of course.
Good luck

UPDATE:

Finally. Finally got 10 mins to look at this in daylight.

Removed kick panel from driver's footwell.



I guess this could be it...

So reconnected:



Refitted kick panel.

Tried the rear squirter. Nothing. But sounds like something is happening down by the kick panel, and no wet carpet.

I've had the wet carpet without explicitly selecting the rear wash/wipe function. Does it have a go, even on front screen wash/wipe? Will contunue to monitor carpet moistness...

Edd China would have tested it before refitting the kick panel...

Try a vindaloo if you have rear squirter problems.

My leak is passenger side, not screen, not heater , not sure if poss condensation from hot air to underside rubber mats they are tray type and front edge goes up front of the well? baffled , they dont just get wet they are soaking.

Still got mine.

The rear squirter still doesn't work. Watched it with the pipes all connected in the kick panel, nothing coming through, but there are a few bubbles moving. No leaks though.

The wet is still there, under the carpets. Not coolant, so must be water. So that means the wash/wipe system or the aircon. Screen washers are fine, rear wash, as above is dry because nothing coming from the reservoir for this.

Had the aircon running for 10 mins and nothing coming from the overflow pipe, so will have a go at cleaning it out tomorrow, with strimmer wire.
