Title: TJ Wrangler leak.....

My Mums Wrangler is peeing water all over her foot when driving, any ideas?  Is it a common problem?  Ta in advance.

First, make sure the drains at the back of the engine bay are clear of rubbish. open the bonnet right back, and about a foot in from either side are two rubber ovals, they have a flappy cover / valve on the end that traps leaves and that, if that gully fills up, you can get water in the footwell, failing that, it could be a pipe on the heater matrix.

Is it only after rain, or all the time ? has the water level dropped in the header tank?

Appears to be weather related, it runs lovely.

Chances are it's the well (vent under the windscreen) filling with too much water as above, check the drains.

Also make sure all the bungs are in place at the back of the engine bay / firewall.
