Are auzzy cars left hand drive or the same as in the UK? If they are LHR then the 'O' ring replacement is a piece of **** due to the lack of steering wheel in the way.

Think it may have been the hole the piece of wood was pushed into that was leaking.

overlandrover im in coomera qld pal and kooky i think they attempted to block the heater pipes before they sold it as the orings were fuked to stop the water getting down to the o rings, problem is they blocked the wrong side they blocked the return side so the water was still getting inside the car. what they should have done was just remove the pipes and bypass it if i make sense i kinda lost myself but i no what i mean
