How wet is the foot well? This is likely to be one of two things. Door seal rubber or the Heater matrix.
Try this bit of detective work. Does it only get wet when it rains heavily? Is it just the front that is wet? Feel the carpet in the foot well. How high up the foot well carpet does the wetness go? Does the wetness smell of anything? Do you have a sun roof fitted? Sun roofs have drain holes that can clog up so the rain pools up in the grooves and runners then over spills inside the vehicle.
If it only gets wet after rain it could be a worn out door seal rubber or the sun roof letting water in. Door seals usually cause shallow pools of water so the wetness won't rise very high up the carpet. The sun roof sometimes causes the seats to get wet as well.
If it is wet all the time, the wetness rises high up into the foot well and it has a 'sweet' smell, it could be the small radiator unit,(the Heater Matrix), behind the dashboard that supplies heat to the heater blowers leaking. Depending on where exactly it is fitted you'll sometimes get wetness in both front foot wells. The smell is the coolant from the engine.
Hope this helps.
if the tree is on the neighboring property, there is nothing you can do as it is his property
you may be able to do something if the trees are not healthy and constitute a hazard to yout property in the event of high wind or other climate condition
Talk with a lawyer or simply have a civil discussion with the property owner as he may be agreeable to trim the tree/s down
Hello Izzy...posting in the Fixya automotive with a question about the sun is kinda unusual...lol..but here goes...
A quick google search turned up these facts about out sun.
It is a lot bigger than your average passenger vehicle...
The mean radius of the sun is 432,450 miles (696,000 kilometers), which makes its diameter about 864,938 miles (1.392 million km). You could line up 109 Earths across the face of the sun. The sun's circumference is about 2,713,406 miles (4,366,813 km).
in the fusebox. there is no such thing , its fan fuse.called blower.
if the fan blow hard, and there is no heat in any register using
recirc mode, and all vents. then the engine coolant is too low temp.
back up one post and read.
yes, check coolant temps for over 180f+
if too low that means the engine cooling thermostat is bad. (usually) but are you in Alaska or key west. that be big time useful .
the drain holes are located at each corner of the sun roof carrier. you will need to open the sun roof all the way to be able to see the drain holes. the drain pipes run down the A and C posts of the vehicle. [A post front] [C post rear]. the easiest way to clear them is to use a flexible piece of cable pushed down from the top. if they are not blocked, the pipes may be off on the under side of the sun roof carrier. this usually happens if somebody has been doing panel work on the vehicle and forget to reconnect pipes. to rectify this you will have to lower roof lining. pipes just push on.
doesn't mean it came loose, it could be plugged. Mine did the same thing. I had to use compressed air into the hole in the catch pan of the sunroof and blow the tubes clean, but then had to remove paneling around sunroof to reconnect tubes after the air separated the tubes from the sunroof. It was no big deal, but took a little time.
Open the roof and look in the front corners for small drain holes.Blow them out with air pressure.They usually have a drain in all 4 corners.You dont say if its a factory type.Parking in places with tree dropings are not good for sun roofs.
You have drain blockage in the condesor case itself. There is a small tube that will drain the condensor case, the big black plastic case that contains most of your a/c system inside the car. This case collects moisture and that must drain normally from the case drain to the outside of your car onto the ground.. If this drain is plugged, you will have leakage on to the floor. If the moisture is allowed to remain in the carpet, mildew will set in and then you will have to replace the carpet.
