Title: I have a swimming pool in the back passenger footwell!!!!
Post by: rob841 on 08 July 2012, 13:42:50

I have an 02 Omega2.6 v6 Estate, yesterday I found that I have a large pool of water in the rear nearside passenger footwell. Dried it out the best I could yesterday, checked the car this morning to find it just as wet again.....it has been raining quite hard over night and the car is not garaged. Has anybody else had similar issues, if so any suggestions???

I would agree. Probably a blocked scuttle drain. >:(

A common problem with the Omega and although the water comes in to the front passenger compartment it quickly water logs the sound insulation and flows to the rear passenger compartment.

Do a search on this forum for more details and "how to" fix the problem.  :y

If not scuttle check windscreen seal
