Mazda MX5 2007 | Water Leak Found

💧 A very common problem on the MX5 is the screws that hold in the scuttle plate will leak into the passenger footwell and make the carpets wet. As on all convertibles, the drainage for the cabriolet hood can become blocked and overflow into the car. The rear brake light can also leak into the boot, which seems to be the case here. We also found the door membranes leaking, which is an issue on all cars of a certain age.

Solution: We will clean out the drainage gutter for the hood, replace the screw in the scuttle and seal it. The rear brake light will be removed, cleaned up and resealed in place, and the door membranes replaced. Then we will dry the car overnight.

A B O U T

The videos shown on this channel are taken from inspection reports, filmed for the customer who has paid for a diagnostic inspection, which comes with a video report. We share them here for informational purposes because the hardest part of fixing leaky cars is finding the leak.

After the initial inspection, if the customer agrees to have the work done, we film progress reports for the customer and will sometimes include them here.

F E Q U E N T L Y A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S

Q: How much does it cost?
A: We don't know. That's why we do a diagnostic inspection. We cannot answer the question of how much it costs to fix before we know the extent of the problem. Prices for our inspection and hourly rates can be found on our website.

Q: Why don't you show us how to fix it?
A: This isn't a DIY channel, we are sharing videos we take for the customer as part of our inspection process. Furthermore, the vast majority of the fixes are simple, and if you need to ask how to fix them, you probably should let a professional deal with it. See below:

⚠️ C A U T I O N ⚠️

⚡ Electricity and water is a dangerous combination. This is especially the case with electric and hybrid cars, but most modern cars have electronic control units in areas which are prone to water ingress. These are easily damaged and can be expensive to replace.

💥 Areas that need to be accessed to fix water leaks may contain airbags. These are explosive and can be quite sensitive. Tampering with them could lead to serious injury.

☣️ Cars that have been damp for a prolonged period often contain mould, mildew and dangerous bacteria. Mould spores can seriously affect the health of people with asthma, the old, very young, and people with compromised immune systems. Mould should always be taken seriously.
