Fixing the water leak in the civic - a step by step guide 

Bro this helped me loads because I’ve been WATCHING the water come into my cabin

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!! Wow U Nailed it. It's been a year water leak for my 2003 Civic LX manual. Multiple temp fixes never was able to PinPoint it. The SEAMS!!!! BINGO. I started ripping apart to realize it's been coming thru the firewall and 2+ cracked seams thank you for a Great DETAILED Video. Saving me $$$$$$ on a diy fix. I truly appreciate it 💯❣️👊

Really good technique. My 1990 Integra has the same type of leak even though it's a different car but it's a Honda. This is the best video I have seen of the many that I looked at. Thank you.

this is actually so helpful. thanks for taking the time to put this together bro!

Thank u very much, i had this problem about 2 years.. today i just found same problem like u, i will repair it as soon as possible. Thank u very much !

I got this video in my algorithm mistakenly, but I appreciate you showing us every bloody step by step and explaining the reasons. It's still crazy you all drive on the wrong side of rode and your steering wheel is also incorrect but what the hell good video.

Had the same problem for months. Thank you kind sir.

I have this leak in my car and didnt know where to look. Thanks for this detail vid.

Great Video! This info will certainly help with the leaking I have in my Nissan Puddlefinder!

I had the same problem in the trunk of my EJ8. I found a small crack in the seam sealer but I just put some clear silicone on it and it's dry as a bone in my trunk now. They way you sealed yours is the proper way to do it though! nice video

Mate!!! I woke up this morning to a puddle in my passenger footwell! Thanks chief

My EK has the same issue, but it's not quite as bad as yours. There's maybe a teaspoon of water underneath my ECU, will probably end up doing this over the winter as I won't need AC during the winter!

Nicely done! I've had the carpet out of my '00 EM1 Civic for 2 years dealing with this...really take away from enjoying your car and I may be selling so hoping to fix this soon. Same thing after heavy rain...really pools up only mine is Canadian so drivers side. Only difference I can stand there spraying all the same areas you did for 10mins and not a drop....after a heavy rain, totally soaked. I suppose I'll have to dig a little deeper to see that corner but I guess I wouldn't have to remove the blower assembly would I. I just threw baby powder up in that area and I'm waiting to trace the trickle to the source but not enough rain yet lol.

Thank you. I will have to do the same. On my vehicle. Have the same leak. On the passanger side. Its been 2 weeks. Since i discovered. That there was a leak under the carpet. I will have to reasemble more stuff before I see the leak. Visually. But. Because it is winter here. It is not possible. To work outside at 0 temp. But i have to. Go from time to time. And collect the water from the carpet. After a rainy day. Yes. This is the only way. To save your vehicle from rusting. Beyond. Repair. Thank you. For the good tips.

8:24 | I took all the bolts off but for some reason I can’t get the blower and the evap off like how you did

I have a Honda civic 1997 with a sunroof and my car does the same thing water comes thru the corner and I’ve also notice that water goes thru my sunroof and in that corner in the passenger side I’ve tried to look for a weatherstrip for sunroof but I can’t find one also my water goes inside my door any help?

Lifesaver bro

Legend bro!! My ek has same problem I will do the same thing bro! Thanks! What part of QLD are you mate?

Great video as always! But wow the civic needs a fresh paint job!

I believe that I have this issue as well with my Civic as it's been a continuous thing for years. I already changed my gasket and cleaned out the gunk yet the rather slow leak continues. I think I can do most of it but my main issue is degassing the AC as I have no clue what I'm doing there and worried about dealing with the refrigerant. How did you do it and is it difficult to do?

Great video bro my issue was the fender grommet. I have no idea how you removed the windshield cowl without breaking those top clips the moment I put a flat head under the lip of them they snapped any tips?

Interesting video, I have a similar waterleak since over 4 years now in my eg civic. I think it comes from somewhere behind the fender, sealed all things behind but without success. And I don't want to remove the air blower cause I fear that something breaks.

Thanks. I`ve the same problem

Thanks bro!

Thank youuu!!

great video! sealed the inside like yours. definaltey main leak. is yours still leaking ? i still got a minor leak . 99% better

My 97 hatch had same issue and was a crack in firewall seam sealer, now after 9 months I've bought a 99 hatch and got same issue, really a pain to do this all over again 😢

Just watching this video for the 2 millionth time. The leak in my 08 accord seems to be where yours is coming from, I'm just scared to degas the thingy cos I am already doing so many things out of my league but for some reason messing with the word GAS has me freaking.

Would removing just the blower motor assembly be possible without having to remove evaporator coil and evap assembly?

Need to do one for the boot 🤣 damn swimming spools

What do you guys reckon the civic will do at Wakefield Park?

I have this issue I believe i, when a make a right turn I hear sand and water shifting and water starts pooling on the passengers side

This video might save me. I have an 02 civic coupe. Everytime it rains, there's a pool of water on the driveer side. I took my car to a body shop and was sure the leak came from around my windshield but it still leaks after they gave it back to me. Im slowly giving up.

At 6:21 you undo the pipe. Did you need to regas the ac system after the repair?

Hi brother, I have the same issue on my 2000 civic EJ9. Owned it since 2009 and only just noticed a rusty passenger side seat mounting bolt, wondered why and pulled up the floor carpet,....yup underneath of carpet soaking wet and actual floor wet. Was yours only the passenger side or driver's side too?

You couldn't access that corner from taking off the fender?

Time to get the best TRADE IN

What seam sealer did you use?

How do you D gas the ac??

i wish i could bring mine to you and have you fix because I don't think I can do this

why does ac need to be degassed ?
