Thread: Wet Carpets

Hi to All, Have just joined your site - very helpful.
Found the fix (I think) on this site (page 6 and 18) for my saturated front carpets on both passenger and drivers side of my 2004 D2 td5 following 1500km trip (no rain). As advised by you guys I crawled under and pulled ends of a/c drains tucked up in transmission tunnel sure enough they were blocked and unblocking released a flow of water. As the water in carpets is clean, (no coolant present) could it only have come from a/c condensate? (no drinks dropped)
Now to dry the carpets, too hard to remove from car, have removed door sill/edge of carpet panels and lifted carpets by inserting sections of broom handles underneath to provide airgap to help drying. Leaving car open and windows down. A couple of 40+ degree days should fix it.

Cheers and thanks.

I assume a D2 would be the same as a D1 for this regarding, the internal heater core.

I've had a D1 heater core leak, which shows as wet carpet.
Leaks slow at first so didnt really notice the loss in coolant initially.
