Hello, I have a mk5, only purchased recently and it seems to get a leak in the passenger footwell near to the seat and close to the door. I'm not sure if this is from rain or water on the roads due to recent bad weather as I normally cover the car. The battery tray area is good with no rot or holes and no obvious signs where it's coming from. Any ideas??

If its a door seal , spray the door with a hose to see of water gets through or it could be the roof leaking. put some clean kitchen roll on the inside when you use the hose pipe and it will telll you where its coming from. If its neither of these it must be coming up from the floor, or your radiator under dashboard may be leaking.

I had this last year, it turned out to be the windscreen rubber. It turned out to be the nearside rubber where it started to raise from the screen. I had to put Tiger seal/PU sealant until a permant fix with windscreen change could be achieved.
