I am sure it's an old and stock question....but...my 2010 defender leaks a river of water into the drivers footwell whenever it rains....I am sure this is a common problem...( they always are) so....where is the normal fault..and what does it take to cure it?
Much appreciated
Thanks

Bathrome silicone sealant. Loads of it. One fave place is it running off the roof, down the gutter, into the inevitable large hole in your bulkhead corner, down the inside of the bulkhead (taking some of that with it) and then out the bottom.

Considering where the puddle is forming are you certain that it's the car leaking not the driver?

Daft has a guide for this...

water ingress manual


if in doubt search for water ingress in the vehicle of your choice.

Pretty sure mine runs down the back of the clutch pedal. Haven't got round to sorting it out yet though. Just another thing on the to do list. But pretty low priority in the grand scheme of things.
