...arrow on one of the photos shows where it is when you are inside the van and where it is on the outside of the van. The cause of the water ingress is the rear quarter panel pressure vents. The perimeter seal on the pressure vents is not good enough and rain water seeps behind it. When the...

Update…… Stripped the defective part and it has suffered water ingress! Needless to say I think it is a very poor design without any form of water resistant seals!

Sounds like a BCM issue to me, or water ingress somewhere. Worth checking all connections.

They are talking b@x#%&!$ You should never get water ingress inside. As above, go back and stand your ground.

That's awful. But also why are the battery terminals rusty and the exposed copper oxidised so much? Do you have some water ingress/severe damp going on that might be a seperate issue?

...door is diverted into the cab from around the speaker. There’s a post about that somewhere on here - creating a waterproof ‘flap’ behind the speaker (using dodomat) was the suggested solution I think.. Thread 'Aftermarket Speakers, Water Ingress, VIDEO' Aftermarket Speakers, Water Ingress...

Another recommendation for captain tolleys, worked a treat for my install when I had a very small amount of water ingress!

I have installed 2 lots of these units into my T6 and they have both failed due to water ingress! lucky THQ have sent me a FOC replacement but I don’t want to fit them until I can resolve the issue. I am thinking the water is coming in from the cover above the light units (barn doors)? I don’t...

Yeah I bought some in the end off ebay slide cover is lovely and straight and no water ingress https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395463222057?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=aiUWzZxKTF2&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=Q4YVa5HWTJm&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Some possible culprits that spring to mind for water ingress are generally ill fitting door seals. Carpet lined doors where the carpet lining tucks behind the door seal allowing moisture in via capillary action or yhe old favorite leaky roof bolts. Outside that maybe check your sliding door...

Roof rail mounting holes are always a sure bet for water ingress

...it out, but honestly no idea same as why some bright spark decided to slice the middle door seal with a Stanley knife either, all causing water ingress to a point, I did pressure wash the van last week and I thought the pw might have been too much but since found out why I'm getting water in.

The brake lights from THQ have a foam adhesive gasket on the back of them that the OEM ones didn’t. They sit slightly proud due to that but still look good. The gasket can’t be a bad thing in my mind and will stop water ingress.

I've removed an old partition from my van and been left with a number of screw holes like these, before I do any carpet lining I need to do something about them but not really sure what. I don't want to see them and I don't want any water ingress or rust, any suggestions?

...back and they weren’t done. Mechanic wanted my permission to cut the cover at the base of the van as he stated it’s designed to stop water ingress to some mechanical components and cutting into it to fit side bars, could let water in. What are people thoughts and experiences of this. Would...

So water ingress then...

Thank you. So frustrating that they lie. I’m not being mugged off. Thank you for replying.

Hi All, I’ve spent the weekend messing around with my Vibe door speaker, working out how water gets in, where it goes and how to prevent it. I certainly don’t have a definitive answer, but I’ve made a video compiling information I’ve accrued, which will hopefully help people understand what the...

Driving near home tonight and had to drive through some moderately deep water - not anything to be concerned about for water ingress, but both sides of the road were submerged and there was traffic heading both ways. I was driving through at a sensible speed, maybe 8mph, when the van felt as...

I would put money on the button not the fuse. I think mine got water ingress from roof rail install. You can pick them up from VW or online not to expensive.
