Hiya,
I've noticed recently since the wet weather has hit that the area in the engine bay where the battery sits accumulates water.
Is there supposed to be any sort of drainage system for this? I only ask because whenever it is like this (usually about an inch of water in there) and I go round a right hand bend I hear a hissing from the heating system and the whole car fogs up!!.. I've also noticed a small amount of water getting into the passenger footwell although the carpet is dry where it meets the dashboard underneath.
To get rid of the water I usually have to press the heater pipes aside by the battery to create a hole to let the water out.
I'm half thinkin of drilling a hole there to let the water out.
Any help would be appreciated!!!!!
Cheers
