Re: [MBZ] Leaks
There was a video on Mercedessource about the owners of a W123 chasing their tail trying to find a leak. It ended up being in the area underneath the cowl vents where a seam had rusted through. Hopefully, it's just a hole behind the battery.

Re: [MBZ] leaks under front seat, W124
Have you pulled the back seat to see if it might be coming from that direction? Nothing in the pillars but the belt retractors, so you discovered...

The water is pooling in the depression where the right rear mounting bolt for the front passenger seat goes into the floor. If the car sits long enough, it spreads to the other bolt (for the same seat), then water starts to show up in the front footwell. The drains in the front corners of the sunroof appear to be clear (I can get a weedwhacker line through them without too much force). I took out the seat and took apart the B-pillar trim hoping that would reveal something, but all I got was an interesting view of the seatbelt retractor mechanism. Any ideas? Anyone BTDT?

Re: [MBZ] leaks under front seat, W124
A failed rear windshield seal could allow intrusion in both directions. Perhaps remove the rear seat and sit back there while somebody plays a hose over the car... -Curt Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2012 09:42:30 -0800 From: Alex Chamberlain apchamberl...@gmail.com To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Subject: Re: [MBZ] leaks under front seat, W124 Message-ID: CABHyH=aoKqf8zZFUmh4OiPbc29WZ=dsze8cf22prqclk55z...@mail.gmail.com Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 On Mar 9, 2012 7:49 AM, Dan Penoff lwb...@yahoo.com wrote: Have you pulled the back seat to see if it might be coming from that direction?

Re: [MBZ] leaks
I bet you were using the dreaded green antifreeze!. I didn't know from chopped liver in those days about that stuff. I did buy from the dealer, though, since it was maybe $7 per gallon. 1980 was pre-everything, remember. RLE
