Trying to get sub frame off at breakers but am stuck with last 3 bolts either side to rear of frame (torx head type), can loosen them a bit but it seems like some sort of captive nuts.
Don't want to give up as it's in vgood condition.

Just put the rubber back down, was still in good condition so once it had dried out happy days

BTW how is your heater or coolant water? Any chance your matrix or a hose has a leak?
No looks all good. Just had floor out for past 3 days drying out, what a pig of a job it is but all good now

You should move east along the coast mate. Every time i look over the Firth its bloody sunny heading towards Kikcaldy. Not that you want to live in there
Eh no thanks, spent 6 months working just along coast from there and it is a different (scary) world.
Update:
Put some silicon round top corner of window, seeing as how I had a tube I took ariel off (was dry underneath) and gave underneath a clean then refitted with some silicon. Still had a slight leak so looked at two drain holes underneath covers and there was some water sitting there so forced some tubing with small baby bottle cleaning brush down it and all seems good now as there was a lot of crap in this tube (didnt have a clue where it went at first but helps using bright orange tubing 
). Have got a sink plunger/ blaster thing that I need to get a bit hose for (a few mm bigger than garden hose) then I will give these a good clean.
Weather is meant to be dry Sunday so flooring will be coming out to dry off.
Cheers to all

Get aq big hammer and hit that back down
Silicon. Fill it up if you are sure its not coming through the ariel. You can get proper windscreen seal from Halfords but its almost the same shit. The Factory seal is under the glass so unless a crap replacement had been dont i am not convinced.
Had look at ariel and it is dry.
Went to car parts store and got a small tube of clear RTV sealant. Have put this on corner where i think problem is and as forecast is for wet tonight will check in the morning and fingers crossed all is good.
If so roll on sunday and I will have seats and flooring out to dry.

Had van in car park and when looking at it with a mate it looks as if the passenger side top corner has lifted slightly
Not sure if it will be possible to see from pics but maybe from right hand corner and 50mm along rubber is different from driver side
#33 Re: Maintenance » Leaking windscreen??? » 2016-04-07 17:50:51
First the 2 'drain hoses', have checked and both of these are clear
There are 3 of these 'covers' and they lead somewhere but dont know where, could this be the problem?
#34 Re: Maintenance » Leaking windscreen??? » 2016-04-07 08:39:40
Had a quick look for vents but not sure where, more than one so am stuck, have found one either side that go into tubes, also found three at windscreen wipers but not sure where these go.
Will try and get pics later

Ariel is a good one on pugs. All my 306's leaked at some point. Silicon or buy a new seal. Is it definitely the passanger not the camber of the road making the van lean that direction as it could also be a door seal or even the area where the wiper blade motor sits. The drain holes fill with dead leafs and general road shit and if not cleaned out now and then they fill with water. Good money is on the ariel though.
It may be camber but tonight lifted rubber flooring as its been chucking it down here and above passenger footwell it was still dripping down a bit. Hope to get a better look at aerial tomorrow.

Have found a build up of water in passenger side footwell, it looks like water is dripping down from somewhere but other than windscreen is there any other places water could be coming from.
Van is a 2004 so would not be a surprise.

If you find yourself pushing on the door to open it i would say again the strike plate. Loosen and pull out slightly.
If you mean problem with drivers door - took handle off and where the mechanism (??) goes into black plastic in rear of handle there was something missing, there is like a small metal rod that goes into this but with too much play so covered it with a bit silicon hose that I had and now grandson can open door easily.
#38 Re: Maintenance » Citroen Dispatch side sliding door not closing properly » 2016-03-12 21:00:41
So today tried adjusting at top to see if this would solve problem. After 10 mins door is perfect, very slight adjustment at top and had to adjust striker.
Now just got to sort out drivers door as its a bit hard to open from outside.
Love forums like this as always on the look out for tips

Have got this same problem on Scudo I have just bought (old one gave up the ghost), have looked at door and when you are looking at it from outside the 'gap' down the left hand side between door and rear body panel is a few mm more at the top. When driving you can clearly hear wind getting in side door.
Do you think adjustment will - 1 realign door, 2 cure gap problem at top edge?
