Hi PJ, please can you help with some advice. I have a leak inside my Chico that drop for the heater and I can seem to find where the water is coming from.
If you referring to the heater matrix.it can be the hoses connected to it ,or clamps not tight enough, or a hole due to rust in the actual heater matrix
Please help me PJ... This is the first year my golf has issues with rain leaking into the cabin. My fusebox was soaked including the mat on the passenger side.. this morning I saw the water flooded in the center console where the gear lever sits. Where could that be coming from.. please help.. I've been following your guidance and every little bit has help 🙏
i had a lot of leaks in the cabin, even blew a relay for the wipers, I have used waterproof tape as well as silicon all ynder the rain tray , hope now no more leaks
Hi I have vw 2010 tenacity.After the heavy rains found driver side foot well with water. Noticed a moldy smell then found damp driver side foot well .The left and right drain plugs clear
Hi there. Thanks for your comment. That sounds like water splashing up from your front wheel. The water hits the undercarriage with quite a force forcing water in.. Look if you can see any holes on the body behind the drivers side wheel. Hope this helps. Thanks for visiting my channel.
@@hiemabedrog Hi there.. Yes that's a tricky one. I wud say, first try and do a weld to the bracket if it's possible.. So that the wiper motor is secure, and then do the fiber glass to water proof it..
I have water coming in by the brake pedal, only on days when the rain is heavy. Also yesterday KZN experienced a terrible storm so water got into the car from the dashboard onto the passenger floor. I think your video explains where this excess water came from. Will check all the drains once the storm subsides. Just wondering if it could have done any damage
No damage really, but carpet would be a bit damp for a while.., and give off a bit of foul smell. Just try and identify where it leaks, so u don't have more water coming in.
@@pjs-golfmk1-diy I'm told the fuse box is on the passenger side of the dashboard. Could water get in there? My demister also wasn't working, instead there was steam for a few seconds. Is that the resistor or the coolant?
Hello, thanks for the tips but my side seems to only be in the passenger side floor where the entire carpet is soaked everytime it gets a wash could it be the plastic seal behind door card or something else
The best way to check is to use a hose pipe... Let someone hose the side door and windscreen etc, and you sit in the cabin and watch closely, if you can see where it's coming from... Are u sure it's not coming from the door rubbers or it could be coming in through the firewall..
Also check on your oil pressure switches .one on top of oil filter housing (white in colour) ,and one on side of cylinder head ( blue or brown in color)....Did you prime your pump when you replaced it ?
Pj i do have a problem on my mk1 owner and your channel helps me very much…ok question… what is the cause of my flickers going on and then after a few minutes it jus stand still? Do u think it might be a relay or a faulty bulb
If you referring to the rear windscreen,Water could be getting in through your rear lights .I have another video on that .just click on this Link..th-cam.com/video/itk47kZ69eI/w-d-xo.html
I think the Dash board must come out. I could be wrong.. Not sure if you can get to it... Haven't had much experience with that issue yet.. But will find out for u..
I have a leak in the passenger and drivers footwell and i cant seem to find the cause.. I have cleaned everything as you have shown in video as well as checked if door seals etc is but to no avail .Do you know where the leaks originate from?
Also check as the water comes off the wheel it hits the undercarriage of car... If u have a hole there or it's rusted then the water can come in in that way... Just silicon it up as a temp measure..
@@lucienolivier5384 i have a same issue, it’s probably what PJ says it is because i also feel a bit of wind on my legs when I’m driving. I just haven’t found where the holes are unfortunately but I’ve been looking
Water is getting to your electronics in the engine Bay. Spray some Q20 on these electronic components. It will definitely help, Q20 displaces water and moisture.. Have a look at this video. It will show you how, and what to do..... th-cam.com/video/6Mtzs033EYE/w-d-xo.html
Hi there. Sometimes if it's wet under behind drivers seat check underneath the car.. Water can splash up from the wheels and it hits the undercarriage with force squeezing water in.. And leakes in the trunk comes through your rear lights, and if the rubber seal at the tailgate is worn. Thanks for your comment and visiting the channel...
Used this method today to sort out a leak. Thanks for always giving such great tips for common issues
Great stuff! ... And it's an absolute pleasure to help sir! :)

Thank you so much🙏
I will have to check. Everytime it rains on my driver's side carpet is wet and with foul smell
Hi I have vw 2010 tenacity.After the heavy rains found driver side foot well with water. Noticed a moldy smell then found damp driver side foot well .The left and right drain plugs clear

Morning ive replaced oil pump and oil sensor but my oil light is still somewhat flickering what could be the matter
Also check on your oil pressure switches .one on top of oil filter housing (white in colour) ,and one on side of cylinder head ( blue or brown in color)....Did you prime your pump when you replaced it ?
Thank u🇩🇪🔥
Pj i do have a problem on my mk1 owner and your channel helps me very much…ok question… what is the cause of my flickers going on and then after a few minutes it jus stand still? Do u think it might be a relay or a faulty bulb
Hi, could be the bulb... Take the bulb out and check if there's any corrosion that could cause a bad connection.. Just clean it up if any.
@@pjs-golfmk1-diy thank u much dude u saved me 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
hiii,every morning the is water/damp on the inside of my windscreen and boot. any idea what could be the cause?

@@pjs-golfmk1-diy its on both the front and rear windscreens
I think my heater matrix( radiator ) inlet and outlet clamps need to be tightened how do I do that without dis mantling the dashboard?
