I have noticed this pool of brown clearish sticky liquid on the passenger floor under the dash and the carpet is soaked with it and the mat has a pool mark on it. i was thinking it has something to do with the air con or heater as it seems to be on the left side of my windsreen also... weird shit! and it also smells weird.

Can anyone help me? as im strapped for cash at the moment and wanna see if i can fix it myself.

ANYONE>>>???

My car is a 95 R33.

Cheers,

Kier

check something for me. It's brown is it? go and have a look at the coolant in your radiator and tell me what colour it is. Then get on the floor and have a look up into the dash where the heater core is and where it would leak from. see anything leaking?

lastly, are you using the plastic guard liners? water can come in if it's quite wet outside without those

Worst practical joke ever - I knew this drunk guy that thought it would be funny if he pissed in someone's car. I tell you, no one was laughing at all. that guy was dead big time. Do you have friends like that?

if its brown i'd say it was your heater core. if it smells a bit musty its definitely your heater core.

even if your coolant is green, even if its fluro pink for that matter, the heater core will still leak brown. they pick up so much crap in there its not funny.

Tone your language back, absolutely no need for it.

i was being serious, as you didnt mention the size of said "pool mark" it is hard to determine how much has leaked, what size it is etc.

the easiest way to resolve your situation with little or no money spent is to bypass the heater core with some copper tubing, the hoses are just behind the passenger side cam cover, join them together to remove the core from the system - although this stops your heater from working, atleast you wont run out of coolant and over heat the car. then fix it up as per the DIY thread in the DIY section for replacing the core.

Nice attitude - Warning issued.

Next time want help, loose the attitude and post without the excessive language and you might get somewhere.

    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
    • Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
