Is that the Holy Grail I can see in one of those pictures? Oh no. Just my imagination
Water ingress farce manual on Google. Have you heard the one about the Mitsubishi and Land Rover air-con and the cat? Sorry for the weirdness, but I've given up on this one! Winscreen seal, aircon system, roof condensation, door seals, windscreen hinge bolts... |

I have seen egress manual and if this wasn't a puma I would look for the obvious places. I mean it could be coming from the door seal and traveling over the top of the kick panel and running down. I have seen water do worse in rain. I need to take a hose to it. The interior light plunger screws are all rusted as well.

From the pictures it looks like mine when it was leaking badly.
The foam seal between the bulkhead and windscreen had to be replaced by the dealer. It fixed that leak and all I have to do now is stop the leak on the passenger door seal - new door rubber has not sorted it ! Bob |

When mine did this they removed the wing, removed the heaterbox resealed and refitted...it leaked in exactly the same place and they had tried the other things first (just to waste my life) Mike

It is amazing that it leaks. I don't think it is coming through the seal for the windshield to heaterbox but who knows. It could be the door seal but am not sure. I would like to see the drain holes I should check if anyone has a picture.
thanks |

THere isnt a seal between heaterbox to windscreen  its heatbox to bulkhead or windscreen to bulkhead. or windscreen seal
Whilst the door seal could be the problem (possibly look for kinks and where the heater routes) - i doubt its that Mike |

I meant bulkhead to windscreen. I miss the old style heaterbox you could see if there was a leak. IN the puma I have no clue what is under the hood and don't have a dealer I am close to.
