Title: Leaky Scudo

I have water in my van and its dripping down from the clip on the sun visor and the interior light where could it be coming from the windscreen possibly??

At first i thought it was the condensation running down from the roof interior but now their is too much water for it to be that
Curious

You'll be able to find out if its condensaton or no by seeing if theres any 'misting' of the inside of your windscreen. I get it now and again in my combo, so if all these vans have it I dont think it'll be a leaky van

It's condensation.  Next time have a look at the roof in the rear!  It'll be dripping

Well thats what i thought but this morning there seemed to be more on the van floor than usual and dripping from the usual places and it rained last night
Maybe its just one of those things that is going to happen as there is a big tank of water in the back of the van

I had an expert and the same thing happened.  It was coming in thro the aerial.  A bit of silicone sorted it.

i took my scudo(old shape) to a body shop this week to get the sliding door looked at where old biddy reversed into it
in conversation with the boss he made a comment about the fit of the door after i mentioned that it leaked sometimes......"your lucky then if its only sometimes"  ::)
in his opinion the worst panel fit of any van on the market
got to say the doors on mine are garbage but overall i like the van
the new models are a lot better apparently
