Pollen filter housing seal, a/c drain or sun roof drain if you have one fittedare you losing coolant still after doing the rings? I get a leak every now and then in the passenger well after heavy rain! RHD.
Type p38 heater matrix replacement in the search box, top right of page, and see what you getYep - tried to pretend it's just working out air locks since I drained it for the O Rings - which were shot - coolant dripping all the way down the chassis rail to rear wheel! But still wetness on passenger side and losing half an expansion tank every couple of days. Split matrix no doubt - but how to get the bugger out? Seen some youtubers on it but they are LHD so hack the dash frame. But is there a shortcut for RHD? Anyone got details - most appreciated.
Passenger footwell wouldn't be O rings....
Possible causes for pax side: sunroof drains, pollen filter housing covers leaking, heater matrix split or leaking windscreen seals.
See Post#5.Aircon drain tubes too?
Tried to change mine with the above method but the steering column gets in the way and that looked a right pain to takeout so gave up and just changed the pipes and o rings, still got a brand new matrix sitting there.
I will dig the matrix out tomorrow and measure it and post back.Got the dimensions? paulP38A says "43mm wide and 157mm tall" but neglects to give the third dimension. Wonder if there is something solid out there with no plastic parts.
Well been up in the loft and measured the matrix, the size of the section the goes in to the heater is 335mm long 165mm wide 50mm deep including the foam seal.
hope that is of some help.
