does rain get in your car too?? - Honda Prelude Forum

mharbeLUDE26 · 07-14-2002, 12:31 AM

A couple weeks ago when it was raining like crazy, I was wearing sandals while i was driving and my feet were getting wet. The rain water somehow found its way into my car!! I guess I never noticed this before because I always drove in tennis shoes. Texas is raining like crazy now a days and it happened again today. Now that I am aware of the problem, it's really starting to bug me.

The only parts that are leaking water are the area to the left of my clutch and the area above my gas pedal.

What could the problem be?? How do I fix it!!??

isn't that a very bad thing...car's arent supposed to let water in unless i mean you're driving in like 2-3 ft. or more of water right?

Try using a water hose while you are under there. You got pictures of your ride? I'm Houston-ish as well.

Yea water in the floorboard is not good... did you drill through the wrong spot in the firewall?

i bought my car used so maybe the previous owner did?? it's not like i can really fit in the area by my pedals so how would i go about finding where the holes are?? I hate it when my feet get wet when i drive!!!
