Default The dreaded water ingress into the drivers footwell

Good Morning,

After some heavy rain over Dartmoor, I jumped into my 2011 Xc70 to the sound of squishy carpets under my feet!. I couldn't see any obvious dripping so I decided to remove the front carpet (what a fight that was!) to reveal the sound-proofing around the bonnet release catch area a darker colour. On further inspection it was found to be dripping wet. (see attached image)

If anyone can give me some advice on where to start looking, I'd be eternally grateful.

Thank you.

Default Leak

I cannot comment on this specific car but had a Mercedes leak and had someone in the car while I blasted it with a hose!
