Wet feet

[CountyV8]

I had the cills fill up on an Old Ford Ranger years ago, like you have mentioned on another thread it was obvious something was going on as it sound like I was driving a milk tanker. It was not immediately obvious to me where it was coming from but once I identified the problem I just pulled out two rubber bungs under the cills and a good bucket full came out, I wasn’t particularly bothered as I paid 60 TIMES less than I did for the IG !!!!!

@CountyV8, is there similar bungs for the IG, how did you drain it ?

Yes there are 3bungs 2round and1oval one they are rubber don’t confuse with hard plastic ones

Heavy rain today and I got the boot wash for the first time. Even with dealer made cuts on the outer rubber gasket. No water intrusion into the vehicle footwell.

While showing my father in law the truck on Friday in a heavy downpour I had a huge torrent run off the passenger gutter into the front passenger footwell. Gonna have to watch that one. Not even sure how the water was running because it happened so quick. I think it runs off the front of the gutter then when it hits the a pillar the downward flow causes it to hook into the open door.

It does. And you will see the rubber corner gutter piece has a very small and angled channel, thus water can build up if the channel isn't probed from time to time to help drainage.
Take the piece off ( 1 screw) and check it out.

I'm certain it isn't plugged as the truck had showroom miles plus the drive home on it at that point, but will keep an eye on it for sure!

I also think being a big gutter it accumulates water , esp when parked at certain angles.

Thanks for this pic-very helpful. Looks like you ran the hose all the way around the door- is that correct? And, solution still working- no footwash? Thanks-

Curious to know answer to above, and in addition, has anybody had the improved door gaskets installed by Ineos under warranty? Were they successful in stopping water accumulation?

Yep. I just had my passenger side done and it’s fixed now. Fingers crossed it lasts. It’s only been 2 days since I got it back.

I did not have the water wash, but the door seals became detached from the door due to poor glue. They were replaced on recall and THEN i got wet feet. So the dealer sanctioned cutting a hole in each of the new seals which I did as directed. So now no wet feet but presuming there will be another recall.

NA owners - I know some of you have boot wash, is more with or without?

No issues here so far. Parked outside during plenty of Florida rain.

I have the semicircular holes in mine, and never had water build up or wet feet.

What is your VIN#? Maybe we can determine if the defect was corrected after a certain #.

The boot wash only happened on the earlier models. Should be fixed by now.
