Don't believe her! I saw her drop water there! Laughing

Seriously though, there is an aircon pipe behind the centre console footwell that has probably come adrift. This has been reported on a couple of occasions Very Happy

Sorry ronco.... adrift means something has come loose.

Google translate says "alla deriva" if that means anything! Wink

So the aircon pipe has become loose and is now dumping water into the footwell.

You guys are terrible. Laughing

Ronco69, I have a LR North America tech bulletin titled "Passenger Compartment Water Ingress", illustrating a number of causes and solutions for water entering the cabin (you'd think our car is made with Swiss cheese when you read it...) I can't post it here, the pdf is 9 pages long and includes lots of drawings and tables/charts. If you PM me your email address, I'll be happy to forward it to you. Several potential problem areas are easy to troubleshoot even for non-techs.

now,
I have put my hand behind center console near foot carpet (somethingh like a little triangle of moquette attached to the plastic console). I have found a rubber tube "corrugated" hose completly free. always in "blind version", only touching with my hand I have found a metal hose from where I think the rubber tube came and I inserted there the rubber one. Do you know is this is correct?
Anyone of you does have a drawing of that area?

I have phoned to LR assistance and they told me "never heard something like that"

Shocked

never heard of something like that Thud

it sounds just like the AC drain hose - there are 2 of them - one either side of the centre console under the AC Unit - as already said, it sounds like it has come unattached - it was originally designed to be fitted at trackside rather than onto the AC unit so it could well be a misassembly fault - any thoughts TB?
