    Leak check

    Is everyone passing their leak check courtesy of all the rain?

    My e39 is treating me to soggy carpets thanks to multiple issues, including the previous owner got shafted with a poor windshield install (they didn't remove the cowling and just slid it in).

    While I'm calling the glass shop I got dripped on.. in the house.

    At least my e30 has never leaked a drop. Ever.

    Nope, got a leaking trunk and my interior smells kind of funky too whenever it rains.

            E30 + rain = fun

                Don't see how thats relevant. Dry vs wet driving are different experiences depending on how you drive

                      I hear that! Parking and working on a car inside a heated garage is a luxury!

                              I wish my garage was heated, the best I can do is put a fan in front of my powder coating oven but it doesn't make it any warmer.
