Water in Rear footwells

Post by gball »

Hi folks.

I have noticed a large amount of water pooling in my rear footwells. Any suggestions as to what the cause is and how to solve it please. I drive a Megane CC (Hard top). Any suggestions would be greatly received as its getting crazy with all the rain, seams to be worse when the car is left stationary in rain.
Cheers.

I don't know the car or typical scenario but
I would check all the drains on hatch and on the front scuttle.

See if you can run an electricians snake down them first in case of debris blocking them,else it is dismantle.

The Meg CC has a really bad tendency to leak from where the roof meets the top of the windscreen above the drivers head. This could be tricking down and finding it's way into the rear footwells.
French is best.

Mine leaks where the roof meets the top of the windscreen ... I've given up trying to solve it and now just put puppy training pads on the seats when it rains, or cover it with a tarp when it's parked in the winter.
