HELP!! Water in footwell behind drivers seat
Hi All,
My RHD CLK Cabriolet keeps filling up with water behind the drivers seat in the footwell. I've checked the drain at the bottom of the air intake and it's clear. The drains around the back windows / roof cover are also clear. When I pour water down the windscreen all the water runs through the channels and out below the front wings (as it should). One thing I have noticed is my drive is on a bit of a slope with the front of the car at the high end. After I've washed the car and pull of the drive on to level ground, a large amount of water comes pouring out from the drivers side front wing. It seems as though water is collecting in the drivers side sill and when the car is on the level all the water drains out the front (this doesn't occur on the passenger side). Can anybody help me? Please, no puns about parking my car the other way round (front end lower!).
Alex.
