Hey all,
The floor pan under my gas pedal has rusted through, and I'm having trouble finding the source of the leak. I have a feeling it's related to the AC, I've been driving with the AC off the past couple of days and the carpet has dried up considerably. I've found what look like two drain holes above my transmission, one on the passenger side which drains liberally (AC?), and one on the driver's side at roughly a 90 degree angle that seems to be spilling water into the rubber engine lining that wraps around the bottom of the car. The rubber was soaked with water, and it was right below the big rust hole. You can see part of the pedal mount exposed.
I could be way off on this, this is my first E30 and I'm just trying to describe what I'm seeing
A video is worth a thousand words, so here's what I'm seeing. **Note**, in the video I say passenger side at the start, but I'm actually on the driver's side.
Here's the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSfKkinivI4
And a few photos showing it as best I can:
