Hi guys,

Another day another issue.
I have noticed a weird sound that sounds like water sloshing/crumpling of a plastic shopping bag; coming from the passenger side of the car.
It does not happen often, but it is loud enough to be noticable.
I first thought it was the speaker on that side, but it is working fine.
I have checked and everything feels dry inside the car.

Any ideas?
Is it likely to cause an issue?
Is it dangerous?

My guess is that the drains for the scuttle are clogged and water is sloshing about. Have a prod under the windscreen wiper mechanism in the engine bay.

so what was that sloshing sound?

Failing that could be the cooling system needing flushing. But normally that would mean no hot air either.

I still have no clue. It suddenly stopped after I asked on here. I'm guessing it could just have been water.

If you look near the bulkhead there will be two tubes about 8-10 inches long, They are the drain tubes from scuttle panel. Squeeze them and poke a screwdriver or something up there to see if they are blocked. Common fault.

if it's not the drainage,try looking in the roof lining and light. I had a leak at the aerial and water got in when the rain was bad, only notice this when there was a bit of water in the interior light lens.

I shall take a look, cheers!

I may have found the answer!

Passenger door lining was coming out at the top (in the bit inbetween the two doors), pushed it back in. so far so good.
