Rain run off going straight into engine bay over fuse box

[Littlemissvw]

hi, did you find anything for this ? I've noticed water pouring all over my engine bay from behind the scuttle panel. I've seated over the windscreen and scuttle but it still goes behind. thanks, AL

Hi, I ended up putting some of the rubber door strip stuff along that metal lip just below the scuttle to see if it helped. It’s really made a difference but not solved the issue completely. I realised the water just runs off the roof and down the screen and finds its way to that metal lip - and it’s a pain to put in without taking the scuttle off which I don’t want to do.
I’ll try and get a pic tomorrow of the stuff I mean.
Oh and the cover I got from MAN does the trick - not had any electrical ’funnies’ since it’s been kept free of the water ingress.
