actually...what kind of workshop can do the job?

I had this problem before, the water is entering the Driver compartment via the hole behind the door speaker. The hole is at the waterproof layer which separates the door panel and the door. Easy to trouble shoot. Just open the door & Door panel and pour water on the fully closed window panes from the outside. You will see where the water trickling in. You can DIY by buying the black sticky material from the Spare parts shops, usually sold in a roll.

if the water sips during car wash, thats very fast come to think of it. since its a 4 door, my best assume would be the front windscreen since water flows the most over there then to your firewall then to your carpet.

other than rubber seals and rust, do check the history of the car if you bought it 2nd hand (who knows it had an accident last time).

u can always sit in the car during the car wash and locate the leak, provided you have remove the floormat and entire carpet as water flow faster without carpet adsorbent.

during car wash...if it's only wash the car..but not wash from below...there are no water enter's the car....but if wash below the car..there are water entered...the problem is not from the windscreen or from the doors...it's from below the car...this mornin i just checked and found out..there are several damage on the lower body of the car...maybe because the car when so many hits during road bumps....maybe the lower body of the car have some opening that might cause the leaking....

i heard that u can patch up some sort of rubber below the car carpet to stop the leaking...have u heard anything bout this? and the type of shop that can done the job?...

actually a dent wont create holes unless its a serious sharp dent. probably its an old dent turned rust.

u need to fix find the cause of the leak then seal it off.

maybe its ur floor pan hole....usually floorpans have holes wit hcovers to let u drain out the water in case got flood.....maybe ur cover is missing.,..its located near under ur seat...and if its tat case.....i think ur whole floor also rusted adi......sad,,,,

donno if that the main problem or not...but my friend accord also have the same problem..the rubber is missing and water entered into the car...heard that it is quite difficult to find the parts at the shops...

Use the caulking material, if you cannot find the rubber for it.

It's the same stuff you see at the place where two metal pieces are joined together, like the boot and the front radiator panel area.

[shiroitenshi]
