    Great video.
    Thanks to this channel, I actually find myself instinctively shouting “YES!” each time I do something to my car without it ending in calamitous failure 😊

    GREAT timing, I'm happy you do these videos got myself a c1 like a month ago your videos are brilliant. Got this leaking issue now tried all you did I'll just see what the result is , so far no leaks after I cleaned the seal and refitted it, it seemed like the water gathered and went over the seal , my seal sills were also rusted on the bottom :(

    My '13 Aygo started leaking just after I got it back in '15. Took it back to the dealer 3 times and got it repaired. "Repaired"… Last time it seemed to stick but started up again after a while. I regret I didn't take it back, but I was just tired of it and the used car warranty was long gone. I could've demanded my money back that third time, but I liked the car otherwise _and_ it was fairly cheap. Nowadays I just make sure to drain the spare wheel well once in a while… :)

    Same repair that I’ve just done a couple of months ago. Door cards not connected.
    I got some plastic bags from super market. Cut them and fitted them to the inside door, so it’s overlapping the door cards and water drips straight to the bottom of the door now.
    Simple and free repair, well apart from pence for a plastic carrier bag lol.

    There's a product called Gummi phledge... I don't know why it's got a German name, but it comes in like a shoe polish foam applicator, made by sonax. It does more than silicon it actually has active chemicals that help soften rubber, it's very specifically for door seals

    It could be that the drain hole under the scuttle panel has got blocked with leaves and dirt, causing water to build up and eventually make its way behind the dash and into the passenger foot well. I had that happen on an audi a4 quattro. In audi's infinite wisdom they put the ecu under the passenger foot well so it shagged my car

      a6 allroad is the same ,, you soon get wise to it , the passenger courtesy module that lives under the seat does all sorts off odd things when it gets wet , all the windows down and the sunroof open is a favourite ,,, great when you leave the car in a car park in town ,,,

  • @tomthompson7400
    @tomthompson7400 2 года назад +1

    Right ,, messing aside ,,, before you undo the door keeper , draw round it with a fine felt tip pen , then if it all goes wrong you know where to put it pack to ,and either start again , or just tighten it up and wind the window down and bend the door top just a tad ,, there are many ways to remove a felines jacket.

    • @StupidBlokeStupidVideos
      @StupidBlokeStupidVideos  2 года назад

      Yea the drain holes are there, but the angle I was parked at when it leaked means that the water will probably drop down onto the vapour barrier rather than into the bottom of the door if you know what I mean

    Drop different coloured food dye in different areas to see where water is coming from.
