leak and funny vibration

Two questions.

Any advice on a leak which causes water, albeit minimal, to be deposited after a wash on the front passenger side towards the front of the floor mat?

Also on two occassions some time apart I have turned a corner slowly and felt a vibration, almost like driving with a warped front wheel. I stopped and then proceeded to drive again and there was no further vibration?

Look forward to responses

I may be able to help - I had a windscreen replaced but they damaged one of the trims (outside) I had a similar symptom and i surmised that it was due to the trim allowing water into the A pillar and finding its way down to the floor mat - when the new trim was fitted problem solved.

On the vibration what mode are you in access or higher?

Firstly, I thought this would be down the one of the aircon drain pipes coming free and depositing water back into the footwell (this has been reported on a number of occasions) - but as it happens after a wash, logic says it must to do with seal somewhere.... windscreen's a good place to start - I take it you've looked inside the car to see if you can determine where the water seems to come from?

I wouldn't be worrying too much about the vibration if it happens momentarily just yet... Very Happy

thanks for the help. will try the fix. As for the vibration. I agree that it is only momentary but it is rather dramatic and car is in normal mode when it happens. Feels like driving on a warped tire.Must admit to being very pleased with feedback.
