Help. Last few weeks it has been pretty wet here in Hobart. And although my lawn is now very green, I have a noticeable leak behind the glove box. It took a while to find - initially it seemed to be the A pillar, then of course I checked the B pillar because it appeared to leak more on a slope. All to no avail. Roof rack seals were fine, window seal ok and I don't have a sunroof...

So when it did it again today, I checked behind the glove box again. Bingo. Water appears to be leaking in from the air filter. E.g. From behind the rectangle cover?

Any ideas before I take it to Land Rover? After all, it has not done it before...

Thanks

Nick

Well... I think I found the problem (if you can believe it). Pollen filter was wet, so I traced the leak - to the plastic cowl covering the bottom of the windscreen! It has warped on the passenger side, and there is nothing between it and the fIlter. Trying gaffer tape now...

My mates D4 had the same water leak and it was that plastic cowl that had warped, His was under warranty so got it replaced.
