    Water? Heater Cooler? Need help

    Hey i really need help i don't know what it can be, if you guys know please help.
    So on the driver side, the carpet is full with water, and it seems like it has some kinda oil, so my friend told me that maybe my heater cooler under the dash board broke. So what i did for a quick fix was that i did a by pass with the hoes so water won't run through the cooler. but it still has water, and with the past rainy days it now has more water. Do you guys know where this water is comming from or from where it could be leaking. Please help

    Does it start at the transmission tunnel? It does it start to pool at the floor first?

      drains clogged?

      or does the water smell like coolant?

          It's called a heater core. Remove your knee bolster and center console and have a look.

              Your heater core is leaking. Even if you bypass the hoses you might still have coolant in the heater core thats why you're probably still leaking

              I have a heater core for sale if you end up needing one
