How to solve the problem of water leaking from the footwell of the Citroen C3 Picasso

Model: Citroen C3 Picasso MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Body

Finding water inside our Citroen C3 Picasso is certainly very unpleasant, especially if we cannot understand what is causing the problem. This video suggests that the reason we hear the sound of water splashing while driving may be caused by clogged drainage holes, damaged seals, or even a faulty air conditioning system. The first thing to do is to remove the grates at the base of the windshield, after removing the wipers. From here, we can see that the drainage holes are clogged with leaves and debris that have accumulated over time, creating a sludge that has completely blocked the drains: we need to clean them out and put them back in place, and the problem will be solved.
