I know this have been cover here before,but-
"Another place where mine was leaking was the heater main body seal. Stupid design, but with only one elephant trunk, the water from the driver's side is required to drain across the car to the trunk, and thus the heater seal sits no more than 10mm out of the (always wet) gutter - hence a small but persistent leak, coming down the top of the transmission tunnel under the heater unit, and then leaking into either or both footwells. I overcame this by a masterfull botch, which does work and did not involve removing the heater, a job I dread. If your problem lies here, PM me, and I'll give you the secret."
Does anyone know what this "secret" is as this is the problem I have.
