Moist floor carpeting on Pass, side of '99 Disco_What might it be?Plz read in...

Do you have air conditioning? There is a tube which is suppoed to take the excess moisture produced by the aircon down past the footwells and exits underneath. If this tube gets blocked (very common) the water backs up and leaks into the footwells. Get underneath with a bit of wire and poke it clear (expect some dirty water in your eye as you do this). The tube can be hard to spot - it's a rubber tube about 6mm diameter, and exits through the floor just to the side of the gearbox. Torch essential.

I can't say about the moisture in the rear, but I doubt if it's related. Perhaps get someone to sit inside while you make with a high-pressure hose from the outside.

I reckon he's just going round corners too fast. It's probably related to the whining noise at speed that so many of us get.

Thanks Richard....I do have air con and will try and find a dry moment to crawl underneath and try that dirty deed! Fingers crossed and will keep ya posted!

Well....I crawled underneath and found the tube and just touched it and....Splooooosh....about a cup of (actually fairly clean) water came a gushin' out!What a relief that it wasn't something more serious!

just put an electric heater in the cabin and will try and expedite the drying process.

Thanks for the tip....it is very much appreciated...and have a Merry Christmas if you celebrate it.

No worries. I do, and I will (in an inclusive and non-denominational way, of course).

Glad to help. Cheers.

Merry Christmas to you too.
