    Last time I tried the AC it was about -2 dec C and it didnt come on. Just read my handbook and it says it WONT come on until +1 deg! Just tried it and the book was right-it comes on now its warmer. Do I feel foolish? Oh yes.
    Barney, I parked with the front end on a speed bump. Poured a bucket full of water on the gap at the top of the bootlid. Got 3 or 4 small 'runs' down the inside of the seal. No drips on the carpet but it may be enough to make the boot area-and the rest of the car-damp.
    Pingu, I think that's a brilliant idea. Might even go over the whole car with that stuff. If nothing else it will have everyone guessing WTF I'm up to

    ... i didn't realize how much water was getting in until i went underneath the carpet looking for the wire to my kickdown switch. there's about 6 inches of foam in there that was completely soaked but the carpets were bone-dry on the top. there is also a drain-hole in the floor that could give you access without pulling the carpets up if it wasn't sealed like it seems to be on some people's cars. i posted a photo here.
