Yep, I opened the bonnet and found the rain gutter just under the screen was full of debris, once cleaned it was no prob, I would advise everyone to check and also the centre drain hole which gets bunged up too. Happy motoring

Check mine every week - when I first got the van the drain pipe had a family of spiders living in it.

It pays to keep it clear as the front blower motor lives under the drain and doesn`t take too kindly to getting wet.

Where do they live now?

In my wallet....

Bongopatrol? Was your window definitely closed properly?

I'd have a check of the seal around the door, or, if you look under the dashboard (drivers side) Try looking at the mounting point bung for the clutch pedal,its a white elongated diamond shaped plastic bung/cap, that leads straight into the under bonnet area. it may be worth checking its sitting flush against the firewall....
