Rain water drainage

[Joe8v]

Hi everyone,

Could you please help me out? 

I have water coming into the driver side footwell in my A3 8v. I have done extensive research and for the love of God I couldn't find much information how to sort it out. 

Some say that is because the rain water drainage is clogged in the engine bay. I have looked on all the forums and available repair/service manuals but couldn't find anything. 

Does anyone know where the location is for the plugs? 

 

Many thanks,

Joe

If battery is in engine bay then the drains for the battery location could be blocked. First thing I'd do is remove the skuttle panel near the bulkhead to see if you can see any trapped leaves etc. It's the black plastic with vents either side.
