Leak

I am shipping water into the front passenger foot well,I don't think it is when wading so assume it is from high er up when raining,any ideas?

Have you got aircon?

Yes,is that sygnificant?

yes you could have blocked drain pipes from the evaporator. have a look see under neath and there should be two pipe, one each side just under the centre bit where yer ac is. stick a bit of wire up em and make sure they are clear

Thanks good buddy I'll check that 2morrow

Also if you have had aircon on for a significant amount of time ICE can form on the box under pass side hand grip/airbag area this can be quite a lot, this then obviously defrosts and soaks your floor! my RR used to do it the fix is dont have aircon on full for a long time and turn it down a little. it could also be the heater matrix pipes that come from engine bay {x2} have a good poke around behind lower middle dash with engine running to see if you can see a leak. due to lack of rain l8ly i would imagine it's somthing like these. Keep us info'd

if it is a disco11 and the carpet(or rather the sponge underneath is sopping wet)the carpet can appear to dry out by the way,there was a panel on my disco which is in the bulkhead underneath the big plastic cover on the near side which was not tightened up properly from manufacture, it is about 8 inches by 3 inches and looks like it should of been bolted on the outside rather than being on the inside,this is where water came in when it rained i loosened the captive bolts a little and bunged some mastic in(sorted)

Just a thought that might be worth checking. If it happens after rain, check that the air intakes and surroundings for heater system are free from rubbish. I once went out to my vehicle to find 3 inches of water in the footwell. After much head scratching I found the area surrounding the intakes had become clogged and the rain wasn't draining away and filled up to a point where it started to tun down and through the heater system into the footwell. A really heavy downpour resulted in a very soggy car. This might not be possible on a disco but is worth checking.

Re Leak

Thanks guys 4 all the great input took all headlining off [what a job!!] an sprayed roof/windscreen with water,eventually found water on inside of screen right in top corner,then found a gob of mastic at the end of the roof gutter had a crack in it hooked all old stuff out new stuff in & in recent rain no more wet carpet.

Have checked all other bits as per post & cleaned as advised just in case,thanks again 4 input
