somehow rain water finding it's way in to the drivers footwell again. this was repaired last year so I'm thinking this could be a bad door seal.

It’s comes from the sunroof drain tubes. I’ve been having the same problems. The fix for me was to use a air gun to push compressed air through the drain tubes. This solved my problems.. best of luck

It could also be the A/c drinks pipes are clogged up. You have to go through the bottom of the truck and poke them with a stick or something long, they look like cones, be careful because water will come pouring from there make sure you poke both of them.

The air hvac intake underneath the windshield cowl can also leak water into the footwells. I had to remove the cowl and place silicone and a rubber flap on top of it to keep the water out.

Are you sure that water is coming from outside? Check the air conditioning / heating air box under the center console. There are 2 drainage pipes for condensation water on the left and right. These tubes end under the car with the dust valves, which look like a bloom buton. Since there is no pole filter in Disco 2, a lot of dirt collects in the air-conditioning box, which then clogs the valves in the drainage pipes. Then the air conditioning box fills with condensation water, which then overflows. To get to it, the front seats and the front carpet have to be removed. Carpet should dry properly. And the rust under the carpet should also be removed. I flushed my air conditioning box and flushed a lot of dirt out. Then I removed the dust valves at the bottom of the tubes. Since then everything has been dry.

Pound to a penny that is it, it pissed me off, till I poured a bucket of water where the bonnet and wing meet and where you said that's where the drain pipes finish is look inside with the kick panel off first set of wires just in from of the door seal.

At the top of the A pillar, seal the corner of the gutter between the metal and the plastic bit. Water runs between and is funneled into the A pillar by the big plastic windscreen trim and ends up in the footwell. Also seal the top corners of the windscreen trim. My bulkhead is pretty rusty so water comes in there. Particularly, between the inner wing and the bulkhead, where the wiring grommets are.

Touch wood all my roof leaks are sorted. Ended up blasted air down the drain tubes and scuttle drains. Sealing the top corners of the windscreen. Sealing where the wires go through the scuttle. Hows yours doing?

@@sleepycatpictures1176Rust is worst to deal with. Hope you get it sorted in time. thanks to your videos I pulled the auto cooler and cooler pipes on mine and replaced them. for some reason it blew the left hand cooler line right at the crimped swivel end. Bodged it with some rubber hose but it blew that as well. Ended up replacing the lot to eliminate any issues so hopefully should be ok now touch wood.

@@deanshortland7194 Must be bad to deal with, not got mine back yet! Glad the cooler vid helped. To be honest, I think the sensor was alright. It was just non-existent air-flow that was the problem. Anyway, too late now. I was going to bodge mine when they leaked, but the red rubber grease worked well and is still holding. Mind you, the car has not gone very far! Good Luck!

do they not still have sunroof drain tubes like the disco 1? if so there is a rubber tube running down the inside of the A pilar, somewhere under the dash they split, cant remember exactly as its years since i did one, but google sunroof drain tube and you should find it

What I found was when you take the kick panel off the covers up the wires, there is a group that goes to the door, the core of wires was hanging down, I pushed them in now what I found was when it rains water was running down the cables and running behind the kick panel, I cable tied it up, so water what so ever now.

I have the same problem. This year I pulled the headliner off. In my case, the leak is from the rear sunroof. Flowing all the way to the front and also down the B pillars where the seat belts are fastened, draining into the carpet.

It's a proper pain in the arse chasing leaks. I've blasted out the scuttle drains and the sunroof drains with compressed air. Hopefully this has sorted it although I'm convinced it's a knackered door seal to be honest.

@@deanshortland7194 The sad part for me was the fact that all (front and back) drain tubes are clear of debris. It leaks from the lowest part, where a plastic clip goes through. I guess I will be taking them fully apart... of course, I still love this thing after 22 years.. Anyways, much love from Canada!

I have to blow out my Air Conditioning and the Sunroof drain lines YEARLY! I also splashed through a HUGE puddle, which tried to kill my Body Control Module (BCM) and my Engine Control Module (ECM), which led to all sorts of nasty codes and my BCM (alarm system part) locking me out of my ECM, unable to start D2. .... Took both off and cleaned them with 91% isopropyl alcohol on a Q-tip. The water splashed up the hood (aka bonnet) and fell down the fresh air intake, just under the windshield lower trim. 😑 oy!

The older vehicles were aimed at farmers and the military so build quality was not their number one priority. If you know what the commons issues are you can generally sort it yourself without spending a fortune at a garage
