206 weird leak

Nov 12, 2005 1 Replies

I had a HUGE leak on my 206 today, only noticed it as i was driving along as it was dark when I got in but there was about 1 cm deep waer in the drivers side footwell. It must have happened during the day, and it did rain quite heavily in the day, as when i got in to the car it was unusually steamed up but thought nothing of it until i went to pick something up off the floor. All around the well sides seems dry so it can't have dribbled in from the dor seal etc so it is a bit of a mystery. This happened to anone else? any thought?



It seems like your internal heater matrix or a pipe to it has broken. The internal heater matrix emits heat by using hot water from the engines cooling system. This is piped inside to a mini radiator the internal fan is used to blow air over it which gives you the hot air. Check the level on your expansion tank under the bonet. It could now by dangerously low.
