2008 xc60 water in drivers foot well

Post by diddy »

I have recently noticed a damp carpet in foot well of drivers side. I put this down to wet feet. Not the mat under the removable mat is now soaking wet. Also have an almost farmyard smell when turning on the air con.

Where are the drains from the windscreen and how do I access these to check?

same problem in a 2010 XC60 - are you asking in an incline with the front of the car lower than the back of the car?

Most of the times the issue it poor glue at the windshield. There should be a recall from Volvo, but owners noticed even the replacement windshield started to leak after a few years. Some suggested the Volvo windshield have a primer that prevents the glue from sticking properly. Owners who had an aftermarket windshield installed (instead of ones from the main dealer), seem to have had the issue permanently fixed.

Try google up, there are many discussions on this issue.
