How do I remove interior carpet? - 2008 Hyundai Elantra

Same place you fill for the front washer fluid ! Your fronts work but not the rear ? There are to washer pump motors on the washer fluid bottle , one for the front an one for the back . Rubber hose goes all the way to the back . If that hose has failed ,to replace it you basically have to pull out your vehicles interior .

Removal Procedure

1. Remove the left front seat. Refer to Bucket Seat Replacement in Seats.
2. Remove the rear seat. Refer to Rear Seat Replacement in Seats.
3. Remove the endgate/liftgate door sill plate. Refer to Rear Floor Rear Trim Plate Replacement or Liftgate Door Sill Plate Replacement in Interior Trim.
4. Remove the left front and left rear door sill plates. Refer to Door Sill Plate Replacement in Interior Trim.
5. Remove the left body side trim panel. Refer to Body Side Trim Panel Replacement in Interior Trim.
6. Remove the left hinge pillar trim panel. Refer to Body Hinge Pillar Trim Panel Replacement - Left Side in Interior Trim.
7. Fold over the left side of the carpet to allow access to the body harness. Refer to Front Floor Mat/Carpet Replacement and Rear Floor Panel Carpet Replacement in Interior Trim.

Disconnect the washer hose connection (1) from the body harness (2) at the endgate. Remove the air cleaner assembly. Refer to Air Cleaner Assembly Replacement in Engine Controls.
Disconnect the hose (1) from the rear washer pump. Install a plug to the rear washer pump nozzle to prevent washer fluid loss. Push the hose grommet (2) in through the bulkhead.
Pull the washer hose (1) into the vehicle though the bulkhead. Cut the old washer hose off where it enters the body wiring harness (2). Remove the hose end from the vehicle
Or it could be the pump , they go bad . switch the hoses from one pump to the other an see if you get washer fluid at the back ,if you do the pump is bad ,if not the hose or the spray nozzle is clogged . You probably will need to pull the washer fluid bottle to see both pumps

In the trunk, there should be a carpet panel and the gas door side. Pull the carpet siding back and there should be a lever labeled gas gap manual. Use that to manually release the lock

Sorry to have to make you post this again, as I don't know where the fluid line runs, but you will need to remove the interior and door panels, carpet, to follow the line to see where the line is broke.

If you post back, maybe someone will know where it goes to save you from taking everything apart.

Sorry.

Hope this helps....

Hi,
Just remove the front seat, mid console box, and door plastic trims. If everything is taken off, you are ready to put the new carpet.
Hope that helps you out.

There is a lot of work to this removing seats, console, interior trim pieces.
A radio install or detail shop can probably do it much faster than you and the hassle avoided may well be worth the money. I think I spent 85 dollars at a detail shop having carpet removed, shampooed, and reinstalled after a heater core leak in an 01 L and I considered that a bargain.

how bad do you want this?if you remove the seats,rocker panel kick plates,carpet,door & quarter panel covers you could install padding from a supplier like jc whitney under the carpet and where space allows,adhere to door & fender panels from the inside.pad the back seat from inside the trunk.how about installing a loud stereo?!

try contacting the dealer.I did this about 10 years ago with an 85 nissian 300zx and they sent me new carpet and it fit perfect. Also try contacting auto part stores. You private small auto parts store usually know more. Also check into restoring car websites. Carpet stores really cant help.

If it's not the heater core it could be that your carpet is saturated with moisture.I have a 1985 Monte Carlo SS and I had the same issue. I removed the carpet and found that it was wet underneath due to a leak in the door seal. You may have some luck by putting a heater in it with the windows open a bit to let the moisture out. Or try putting a De-humidifier in it for a night or two and see how much water is collected.

Hope This Helps..........Keep me posted with a comment here. Weather my suggestions help or not it's nice to know so i can pass it on if i have someone else with the same issue!..........thanks,,,,,six

It sounds like a plugged drain line from the air conditioner. Most cars now run in the a/c mode whenever u turn on the climate control (even when heat is on). The passenger side front is where it would be wet, and the carpet and carpet pad act like a sponge and will soak up the water. Let me know how u make out.
