   hi,I have a saxo 1.4 furio and for couple of weeks now when it has been raining and i wash the car, i think water has been getting through somewhere as the matting under the footwell is wet / damp and sometimes i have had a little puddle of water on the floor matting just infront of the pedals??
   I would love to know why this is happening and if anyone knows how to correct this problem i have because i do not want my electrics getting water on them and then worse case scenario... not working.
   
   help please!

   when i had wet floor on my car it was actually caused by water coming in fro the sunroof down the pillar behind the dash and into the carpet! might be worth removing your seat and pulling back the carpet and having a look for a hole in the floor! but if no hole then have a look at what i said before

   I didnt see this thread when i made mine, oops, but i have a feeling it could be the sunroof because on the drivers side it slightly bows up, but would it not just go down the drain line?

   sun roofs leak often on saxos test it with a bucket of water after you have removed the plastic handle and lights on the roof
