This has happened 3 times now in the last couple of months. After driving on wet roads, our 2003 Mazda3 won't start. It won't even crank or turnover (primary vs. secondary ignition). All of the other electronics come on when you turn the key, but nothing from under the hood. After a while of presumably drying out... anywhere from 15 minutes to hours, it starts again. I'm thinking something is shorting, but what.
Mechanic can't figure it out... but he's only had it for a day, and it's been dry, and starting fine.
Corolla / Matrix 2009-13 :: Low Frequency Shudder / Vibration Is Felt In Floorboards
2010 Corolla 1.8 automatic. Accelerating at highway speed (2800-3200) rpm a low frequency shudder/vibration is felt in the floorboards. Goes away of you let up off of gas pedal. No vibration at idle, runs fine all other times. Most noticeable when accelerating under load (ie going uphill) and at highway speed. Trans mount visually intact. Ditto engine mounts. Cv axles less than 1 year old no rattle upon shaking.

2004 Toyota Tacoma... I drive 40 miles each way to work daily and sometime, usually 20 minutes into the drive, I get a vibration in the front end and felt through the floorboards and steering wheel, that get progressively worse until the entire cab is shaking. It lasts approximately 10 minutes and then it stops only to happen again on the next drive. Wheels have been checked.

I have a '05 4X 6.0 PSD... that has a loud clunk or pop noise from under the drivers and passengers floorboards. I've done A LOT to try and fix this noise... and know, it's definitely due to frame twist. As I can drive straight, on flat ground and it'll never happen. On a dirt road, with stutter bumps... still, nothing. When the road is off-camber, or I have an S-Turn the CLUNK will be there, and sometimes more than once (seemingly if the load change is enough).
If I'm off-road, and the road is off-camber or has my X articulating 1-2' in either direction side to side or diagonally, the CLUNK is so annoying, so bad, I think the X is going to fall apart.
So this past weekend, I had my fiance' roll back and forth (about 20') over a small dirt embankment, while I was on my hands on knees outside next to the running board. And boy... it's a LOUD clunk, and I can feel it on my feet in the X... or if I put my hand on the frame. But, for the life of me... can't find the culprit.
GTI 337/20th Anniversary :: Soaking Wet / Leaks Through Both Doors
It doesn't matter how i park my car, if its parked down hill it will leak into the front seats, if its parked up hill it will leak into the back seats. If its parked with the drivers side door up, water will collect on the running boards, then seap through the running boards, through the door gasket and it will puddle on the carpet, its gotten so bad lately with rain all week that the water level has now raised above the carpet and there is a nice pool started in my back seat.
I've checked all the door gaskets, there is no rips tears, and absolutely no reason for it to be leaking. I don't see how it can leak through both doors in any and every spot possible.

Last night it rained pretty hard. We were getting back into the gx and my wife ask me why the floor is wet. I thought maybe it was tracked in on our shoes. Well upon further investigating i noticed a stream coming down the inside of my dash by the obd2 connection and where your left shin would be. I pulled the scuff plates off and its flooded.

View 11 RepliesOpel - Astra :: 2001 - Floor At The Back Of Driver Side Soaking Wet
The floor on the back drivers side of my 2001 Astra is absolutely soaking wet. It happened one day that my car was flooded with water in the back of the driver seat as well in the front to the pedals First the amount of water was big enough but after the sponge from the back of the passenger seat and the floor sponge that is underneath got soaked with water. Its impossible for me to squeeze the water from the sponge. Now its not leaking from nowhere its just the water that remained in the sponge. My question is how is that possible to find myself flooded with water only in the back and front of passenger seat. Its seems that all water came from the back of the driver seat on the floor. What should i expect next that is going to happen? is this going to damage my car in the near future?
View 6 RepliesEngines - Transmissions :: 2010 - Refuses To Shift Up / Down In Rain
So I have two issues one bad and one worse both while driving in the rain. Hyundai Elantra 2010 Automatic 4cyl, Bad scenario: the car refuses to shift (up/down) after something is getting wet, just this morning we had really nasty rain and this happened car feels like it's stuck in second gear. RPM was @ 3000 while going 45/50 MPH is this normal? But you can feel and hear the car is not shifting up or down while stopping at a light MPH 0 RPM 1000 when accelerating from the stop I have to press the pedal more the usual almost like no power and RPMs just go back up to 3000 and still can't feel the shifting from 1rst to 2nd almost like its just stuck in 2nd..
Worse scenario: Same instance driving in the rain - something gets wet? and my engine/trans ? all the sudden jerks/kicks with a thump/thud noise the jerk and noise might be at the same time the car is shifting between gears not sure. If I keep trying to drive it keeps kicking and jerking so I don't tempt it in case I make something worse off, one time this happened I had to keep going to get off the road safely and it did through the engine light on the rain stopped while I was pulled over so I sat for an hour let it dry out some and the car ran fine.. What could this be??? When the car is dry runs just fine, I even had the dealer do some trouble shooting 2 weeks ago cuz I had the worse happen and had to have it towed and he couldn't re-create the prob. nor find what it could be..
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Foggy Windshield When Driving In Rain
I did not find a solution to my 2011 Elantra GLS's windshield fogging up when it is raining. Other vehicles I owned would clear the foggy windscreen by simply turning the fan on the windshield setting. No A/C necessary.
However, when the Elantra fogs up while driving in the rain, it requires that I put the A/C on (not in recirc mode) to clear the glass. After it clears, I shut-off the A/C to conserve fuel, but after 30 secs or so, it begins to fog up again.
There is no apparent water in the car, or wet floormats, so I'm wondering what could cause this?

I dropped off my 2015 RX450h at the dealership yesterday because the rain sensing wipers no longer sensed rain. Late in the afternoon the service writer called and told me that they ordered a new windshield because the sensor is part of the windshield?
Sounds strange. I've heard that some aftermarket windshields were interfering with sensor's ability to sense but never an OEM windshield.
Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Proximity Sensor Just Went Off When Driving In Heavy Rain
I was driving in a heavy rain on Saturday and all of the sudden the proximity sensor just went off without anything even close proximity then the left blinker just went off by itself. I cut off the engine then restart couple of time but that didn't work. After 3 hours in the dealer, the mechanic still couldn't figure it out, they said they needed more time to trace the source of the problem. Electrical problem on my 13 RX350 FSport....
View 9 RepliesAccent MC (2006-11) :: Leaking Through Dash - Water Soaking Passenger Floor Board And Getting Into Heater Fan
I have an 08 Accent hatchback, no sunroof. I am having water soaking the passenger floor board and getting into the heater fan. If I park on a side hill it actually drips out of the bottom of the fan motor, and you can hear it being sprayed inside it when going around a corner. Checked the windshield - seal is good, took off the cowling under it and everything was dry - including the filter for the fresh air, so it doesn't appear to be coming down through there. I even poured about 8 gallons of water down the windshield and into the run-off channel at the bottom of the windshield and nothing seemed to get into the fan or leak into car, however, by the time I drove it home 4 hours later, it was in the fan again. Is there some other way to for it to getting to the fan? It's not coming from the door side, as it is usually dry on that side when it first starts getting wet, but rather it stars from the left of the passenger foot well.

I have a 2010 corolla with 32k miles, automatic transmission. I have an intermittent low idle issue when it rained or when it is below freezing 32F. It happens when I am in drive and about to brake to a complete stop. The idle dips to around 500 rpm, the engine shudders and the car shakes then after a second or two, the engine idle goes back up to 800 rpm. There is no engine concerns at any other speed just at idle. I have no CEL codes. The engine never stalls. Low idle when braking.
