Thereis a massive discussion on that other site on this problem.
My new van is one of these new Boxer/Ducato models & going in to be fixed next week. The design is clearly flawed & the manufactures are aware of the problem.
Anyone with a new model should check if they have the "Water feature" problem & get to a dealer to get the fix.

Anyone here had the full fix yet,reseal of scuttle with additional rubbers and a new engine cover?

Mine has been in to be re-sealed & new part fixed, but in recent rain the center joint is once more leaking.

So back we go.
I understand from discussions I have read that new vans are being fitted with covers.

So the story continues

Thanks Don
Yes I had seen your earlier post. There seems to be a lot of rumours about what the companies are going to do, so we still don't know how this problem will be solved.
