Seem to have developed a leak somewhere under the dash on the passenger side. Water is running down from somewhere and collecting on one of the boxes under the passenger dash and then dripping onto the rubber part of the footwell mat.

Anyone else had this or if you've been under the dash there have a clue where this might be coming in?

Any help gratefully received as was planning a bit of a run into France next week but would prefer for the passenger and the electrics to stay dry if the heavens open!

If this is a Tuscan your talking about, I would'nt mind betting that its the seals at the top of the A pillars that are early spec or poorly fit. I bet my arse on it.

My Tuscan had a similar leak which TVR sorted at the 1000 miles service. The culprit was the rubber seal one either side of the roof panel which was adjusted to minimise leaking and wind noise.

Just returned from two days in a Tuscan-S as a Ride-Drive rep.I noticed I was getting wet feet and saw condensation from the left-most vent when the air-con was on.This drips down the inside of the dash onto the passengers feet.Further search showed the inner/underside of the dash to be soaking wet as well as the passenger footwell
