2 Attachment(s)
hello my car is a 2005 c270 cdi elegance.
i have some water leaking into driver footwell, i have had a look at drains (including under fuse box) and they are fine. The grommet for the bonnet release cable looks a bit cracky but i am wondering if my problem is the missing piece of rubber on the windscreen on the drivers side? Attachment 277878 the piece on the passenger side looks like this Attachment 277877 whats its name and where can i get one? if it is my grommet on the bonnet release cable what kind of price is that to replace? many thanks |

Hi
Did you find out about the rubber part number? |
do you do your own oil changes? there is a drain tube near the oil filter that sometimes doesn't get pushed on enough / comes loose as the filter is removed.
Ive had this problem before and drivers side used to FILL with water. |

Same here,any news on the missing rubber
|
the water trickle down from the hood release cable.. there should be rubber grommet there sometimes it comes out you need to push it in and use some silicone sealer to keep it in place
|
After went through images and confirmation from other w203 owner, there is NO missing rubber. There is only a small piece of rubber on passenger side.

All I can say is do whatevery you have to do to fix it. In my car, water leaked in that area and got to the dash board and into the headlight switch. It corroded the wire connector and rusted the pins off into the connector. Just thank god it defaults to the auto mode and my headlights turn on when it gets dark.
Its one of those things that if you ignore it long enough and just 'put up with it' it will cause you more problems down the road. |
