The whole right (pasanger side of my car) floor is wet. It is soaked near the rear seats and still wet in the front seat area. Nothing spilled. Something is leaking from my engine or something. The liquid doesnt smell like gas or anything. Any ideas. I am going to call my local toyota tomorrow and see what they say.


help,

I have a sunroof but it didnt rain. I called toyota and they said the earlyest they can even see my car is monday. Who knows how long it will take on top of that. Looks like Im walking :o . Anyone have any ideas so I can fix it. Toyota told me it is most likely not covered under my waranty anyway. What a joke.

32,000 miles woo hoo :P its a 2000 and I am not sure I have to go look it up.


Can I drive my car to the toyota dealership? Will it cause any problems it looks like all the fluids under the hood are fine so I think its driveable?

How far is it? I'd see what the dealer says. either way, if it gets more messed up, they have to fix it anyway under warranty :lol:

hey, even if you don't have towing coverage i can give ya the number toyota roadside if you'd rather have it towed . they STILL haven't transferred over the files so we're still just covering everyone that calls in regardless of the year/mileage.

It's something like 1-800-xxx-5080..i don't remember though..I can pull it up though next time I'm in work if you want it. Would cover in full to the closest dealership.

You dont have to do that but thanks. I took it in just so they could document the water because by monday it would be all dried up. I got a nice guy and he was like your freaking car is soaked.. I looked at him like no crap and hes like let me see what I can do. 10 minutes later He comes back with my car. Hes like its fixed it was the evaporation tube came undone and was leaking into my car. He told me I had to dry my car out but thats ok as long as my problems fixed. I took a wet/dry vac to it and its pretty much dry.
