Where does the Lavida tend to leak?
1 Answers
Door leaks and air conditioning leaks on the passenger side are common leakage points found in this vehicle. Door leaks: Waterproof sealing strips cannot replace the door waterproof membrane. However, applying sealing strips can block most visible water from entering the vehicle. This offers three benefits: first, it protects internal door components; second, it enhances waterproofing effectiveness and extends the waterproof membrane's lifespan; third, it prevents debris from entering through window gaps and clogging drainage holes. Air conditioning leaks: When the Lavida's air conditioning leaks on the passenger side, the cause may be condensation formed when cold air from the evaporator meets warm cabin air. Normally, this produces minimal water. Significant leakage could indicate either a clogged air conditioning drain hole or a detached drain pipe. Prompt cleaning is recommended. Large amounts of water can cause cabin odors, and prolonged exposure may damage wiring and connectors under the floor mats. After resolving the leak, remember to thoroughly dry the passenger compartment.
