so this morning jump in my car to go to work....FLOOR IS SOAKED... spoken to a few people about what it could be... tomm i am taking the carpet out to dry and im going to try and find what is causing it... being possibly the drain hoses or i read something fro another mitsu that it was there ac darin leaking above the gas pedal?
just trying to see if anyone else has had this problem with there evo/.

 

No problem in my car, yet....

But it is a very common problem in general.

Just try to get under the car and poke something in the drain. just stand back as the water might be a lot.

 

My brothers 03 had a really small hole in between the fire wall and were the strut are. It caused his hole driverside carpet to be all wet, took some time to find it too with it being a small hole and all. Hope this help a little never know GL

 

Maybe the heater core..........

 

What kind of fluid is it? Is it rain water, coolant, refrigerant,? If it was rain water you can check your weather stripping on the door although the door should probably be wet too. I haven't had this problem yet. Just do a visual and hopefully you can find it. Good luck.

 

theres some threads on this that would probably be helpful. something about the driverside kick panel, behind it, there is an issue where the main connector is. if not, then yeah, check all the usual suspects like drain hose, mode box, etc. good luck!

 

check the grommet fitting that the rear O2 sensor wires run through. if its loose road water will splash into the car. lots of it, I know.

thanks for all your help guys i narrowed it down from what everyone had kind of mentioned and found it....it was the grommet under the fender.... thanks !

 

I was going to say it was from the guy that tried to steal it and p!ssed his pants when he drove it.

It's a hole in your firewall. By a rubber grommet and block it and put some sealant around it.

 

i had that problem a yr ago it fried out the main connector shorted. kinda funny the wipers lights and car ran with the keys out of the car. I came to the same conclusion of the rubber grommet where the harness comes into the car, under the fender. Sounds like Mitsu had some problems in the design stages of that piece.

 

dang i have been having this problem too! mine doesnt get soaked with water but it will start smelling like mildew after a hard rain. i'm gonna go check it out and maybe fix it tomorrow
