    Regarding po sa basang flooring, nababad dn po flooring ko mula likod gang harap. Found out na nung pinalitan ung bumbilya sa tail light, hindi na ikabit ng maayos, walang nut ung upper portion. Naayos na po ung leak sa tail light.

    Try ko padry sa car wash pero insist nila padetail ko kasi di daw po madrdry yun at mabubulok and kakalawangin flooring dahil di rn nila kaya mapatuyo ng hindi babaklasin carpet. Totoo po ba yun?

    Bka po me cheap effective way na mapatuyo un, so far, am trying to suck dry using chamois pero prang walang katapusan. Hoping na lng dn me na umaraw na sana ulet and tutukan ko na lng ng electric fan.

    drahcir,
    have you checked the door weatherstrips for cuts, tears or rips? if they are intact, there are two possible points of water intrusion with a parked car. one is if the cowl (the narrow sheet of metal below the windshield and directly behind the engine hood or bonnet. this might be rusted through. the easiest way to correct this is to remove the cowl grill and apply coal tar or brushed on truck bed liner on the suspected area. do a wider patch than the hole as the cancer probably spread already. the other source of leak is from the butyl tape(black adhesive used to fasten and seal the windshield against the body of the car) that has detached from the body of the car or the windshield from believe it or not, improper use of garage jack at the auto shop by the "well trained" mechanics or parts replacers jacking one corner of the car. there is a difference between the service jack (the jack that came with the car for changing tires) from the garage jack that raises the car to a point that the car body distorts beyond the designed tolerance by twisting the car's body too much that usually causes this butyl tape to detach and create a new leak. thanks to those "well trained" mechanics or parts replacers.

    the fastest and least expensive procedure that you can do yourself is to open the cowl grill to expose the panel below the windshield that serves as the gutter and apply aluminum tape (readily available at ace hardware) being mindful that you apply the tape starting from the lowest point upward just like installing nipa roofing. or if you can avail yourself of aircraft speed tape, it works just as well if not better

    jick.cajeco, sir ok na po, ginawa ko yung sinabi nyo na baklasin yung cowl at nakita ko yung gutter na umalsa na yung epoxy na inilagay noon at nag-istock yung tubig di nakakaagos lahat kaya may napasok sa loob, tinanggal ko na yung epoxy na sing tigas ng semento at ng umuulan kinabukasan wala na ko basa na nahipo sa carpet. baka pinturahan ko na lang ng pang rust proofing para di kumalat yung kalawang. maraming salamat sir at sa mga nagpost... ang laking tulong ng thread dito ...
