Other Problems / Re: 1991 3dr - water leak under drivers door
Last post by AndyBa -
Are you sure the water isn't coming from the inside of the door due to the membrane being "faulty"?
I'd take the door panel off just to check. Water that gets into the door (and it does) should exit the drain holes. However water can track down the internals and will find its way out of any breaks in the membrane then proceed to fill the footwells.
Good luck, it's not the weather for drying sodden footwells!

Other Problems / 1991 3dr - water leak under drivers door
Last post by adman020 -
The Golf parked on a sloped drive is leaking loads of water from the drivers door into the rear footwell. The carper was floating after one night so needs to be fixed  The door itself i have added a membrane and will be replacing the outer scraper but can't figure out why the bottom door seal is not stopping the water come in and it's pooling on top of the seal? I removed the seal and made sure the best part of the seal was in this corner, no difference. Is this down to a worn our door seal? Anything i can try?

When you pull the connector to the blue coolant temperature, does the idle change?
Had a similar issue with a Corrado and it turned out to be the wiring that was the fault and the car always thought it was stone cold.
The idle should change when you pull it, if not, I'd start belling the cable out.

Not at all, but the sensor is just brand new, its very weird

Now however the idle is instead 1500 rpm when hot, and hard to start when hot, but perfect when cold
