robdoc Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 hi all, ive just joined this group in the hope that someone would be able to help me resolve a problem that ive recently discovered with my 59 plate mondeo 2L cdti. it seems that i have standing water in the drivers side footwells (front and rear) with no obvious sign of entry. i had a similar problem a year ago when the rear door wouldn't lock via the central locking system, but seemed to rectify itself when the door was repaired. i am in no way mechanically minded and would appreciate any responses. many thanks rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Not sure about the cause - but try sitting in the car & get someone to hose the car down & see if you can see where the water comes in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 ...you can also do that with a car wash, although with that approach you are a bit more committed for a period and that may be a problem if it is a big leak. If I was to bet, I'd bet that the repaired door wasn't well repaired and the membrane has a leak. (One door or both doors.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdoc Posted August 23, 2015 Author Share Posted August 23, 2015 thanks for your replies men. ive done the hose pipe thing and got no joy and the last time it happened it went through a carwash and got the same result. both doors and seals are bone dry, and even the carpet up the sides towards the doors are dry, but there's standing water in the footwells.

Bitzer Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 Daft question maybe, but do you have a sunroof? If you do, then it could be a blocked drain pipe???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bitzer Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 No sunroof. I'm now bald due to hair pulling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
