Bump

 

can someone answer the water question please :(

[Taz_Rx]

Check that you're not leaking water out of the heater core. :(

[benpedder]

where abouts is that :(

[tom210]

its in the box on top of the transmisson tunnel, has two hoses connected to it, and looks like a mini radiator, in which the engine coolant flows through to produce the heat you get from your heater, if its leaking you'll loose coolant and may overheat your motor :(

Is there still water in the motor, or has it all leaked onto you floor!?

 

Top the radiator up again and re-check the heater box. Unless its a dodgy seal around the door, window, windscreen etc thats the only place water will come from. :(

Cool, yeah worth a try anyway, as it may have stop leaking BECAUSE there's no water left to leak!

if you look on the outside of that panel theres a chrome vent (may be painted), now I'm not really sure what I'm talking about but its a theory, i think it just creates an airflow accross the rear window helping it stay clear from fogging up etc, someone can correct me if I'm wrong though.

And the reason there isnt one on the other side is because if the 2 door KE20s are anything like the 4 door ones the feul cap is located underneth.
