Hello everyone,

I am new to these forums and am having a major problem with my 2004.5 S40 T5.
I have a severe waterleak on the floor behind the driver's seat anytime that it rains. I have brought the car to my service center and they have not been able to find anything wrong with it (the checked all of the drain holes for the sunroof, trunk, ect..) I have also called the Volvo customer care # and they basicly told be that my car is out of warrenty and I would need to bring it to the service center. I am getting very frustrated. we had rain this weekend and I vaccuumed out almost 3 gallons of water from the back seat floor. Has anyone else had this problem, or any suggestions
Thanks

Update on my water problem. Driving home from work last nite I heard what sounded like running water coming from the back seat. I pulled over and tilted the seat forward and saw a steady stream of water coming from the blower vent under the driver seat. When I turned off the fan the water stopped when I turned it on high water gushed out (like turning on a faucet). I brought the car to the dealer this morning and demonstrated this for the lead mechanic. They are going to show this to their water leak specialist this afternoon to see what he thinks. Sounds like it is going to be expensive!

I'm having the same issue. Water on the floorboard behind the drivers side. Not exactly sure what the issue is but I think it may be related to the heater under the car seat. I'm going to try and see if I stop using that it will stop and wait to see if it is just the rain with me. I'll let you know if I find out what my issue is please keep me informed of yours. Thanks.
