🚐💦 VW Transporter Pop-Top Leak – Challenge Accepted 💦
This VW Transporter with a pop-up roof came to us with a leaking roof — and it wasn’t a simple job.
In fact, 2 bodyshops and the main VW dealer refused to take it on.
Once we heard that… we were more than keen 👀
We:
✔ Diagnosed and repaired the leak
✔ Removed and replaced the headlining
✔ Used the correct VW adhesive (6-hour cure time & strong fumes)
The tricky part? Holding everything perfectly in place while the adhesive cured…
Our solution:
👉 Inflated children’s rubber rings to apply even pressure across the roof 😄
Sometimes it’s not just about the right products — it’s about thinking differently to get the job done properly.
Now the van is leak-free and fully restored inside 👍

💦 Leaking & Flooded Cars – We Do It Properly 💦
When a car has been leaking or flooded, the real problem is often under the carpet. The soundproofing becomes soaked, smelly and full of mould.
Most places will try to dry it out with heaters or dehumidifiers… but that doesn’t remove the contamination.
At Cleaner Cars, we do things differently:
✔ We remove the wet soundproofing
✔ Replace it with brand new material
✔ Cut and fit it properly — no extra cost
The result?
✅ Leak-free
✅ Odour-free
✅ Mould-free
Are we one of the only companies in the UK doing it this way? From what we see… yes.
That’s why our customers get a proper, long-term fix — not a temporary solution.

💦 Ford Focus Leak – How We Diagnose It 💦
Guess work isnt an option
This Ford Focus came in with a water ingress issue — but finding the source of a leak isn’t always straightforward.
In this video, we show how we diagnose the problem properly, using proven methods to track exactly where the water is getting in. No guessing — just a clear process to pinpoint the fault.
Leaks like this can lead to:
⚠️ Wet carpets and soundproofing
⚠️ Mould and unpleasant smells
⚠️ Condensation inside the car
That’s why it’s so important to find the source first, before any drying or cleaning takes place.
👉 Watch the video to see how we track the leak down.

✨ Audi A5 Cabriolet – Full Valet & Roof Treatment ✨
Another visit from a repeat customer, this time with their Audi A5 Cabriolet.
We carried out a full valet inside and out, along with a deep clean of the fabric roof, followed by a full reproofing treatment to restore water resistance and protect it from the elements.
Keeping a convertible roof clean and protected not only improves the look of the car, but also helps prevent fading, mildew and long-term wear.
Always great to see returning customers trusting us with their vehicles 👍

💦 BMW 6 Series / BMW F10 F11 Passenger Footwell Flooding – Common Leak Problem 💦
If you own a BMW 6 Series, BMW F10, BMW F11 or BMW F07 and you find water in the passenger footwell, this could be the cause.
These BMW models drain rainwater from the windscreen through scuttle drains and ducts in the bulkhead. Over time leaves and debris block the drains, causing water to build up.
Once that happens the water looks for another route and often enters the cabin through the well-known “yellow grommet” (sometimes called the yellow peril) on right-hand-drive cars.
This BMW came to us with water sloshing in the passenger side floor, and in the video we show the investigation and the cause of the leak.
We’ll now clear the drains, repair the leak and properly dry the interior to stop the problem returning.
If your BMW carpets are wet, windows are misting up or you can hear water moving in the footwell, it’s best to get it checked before mould forms under the carpets.

💦 Ford Focus Boot Full of Leaks… But Where Are They Coming From? 💦
This Ford Focus came in with water getting into the boot area, but when we started investigating we found multiple leaks rather than just one.
In the video you’ll see water entering from several different points — something that’s actually quite common on these cars. Once the water gets in, it quickly soaks into the soundproofing and hidden areas, which can lead to mould, damp smells and condensation inside the vehicle.
The big question is…
👉 Where are all these leaks coming from?
Watch the video to see the investigation and the areas where the water is getting in.
Next step is to repair the leaks and properly dry the interior so the problem doesn’t come back.

🚨 BMW M5 Boot Leak – Hidden Crash Damage Found 🚨
This BMW M5 5 Series came in with water collecting in the boot.
During our investigation we discovered something unexpected — the car had previously been involved in a significant rear-end crash. Inside the boot we found welding repairs, and the boot rubber seal wasn’t sitting correctly, allowing water to get in.
In the video we show exactly what we found and where the leak is coming from.
The good news is this is repairable, and we’ll be fixing the leak properly before drying and restoring the interior.
Water ingress problems often have hidden causes, which is why proper investigation is so important.

💦 Honda Jazz – Door Leak Causing Wet Carpets 💦
This Honda Jazz came in with water getting inside the car. After investigation, the problem turned out to be a leak from the door, allowing water to run inside instead of draining away properly.
When this happens, water can soak into the carpets and soundproofing underneath, which often leads to:
⚠️ Damp carpets
⚠️ Condensation on the windows
⚠️ Mould and unpleasant smells
In the video we show where the leak is coming from and the areas affected. The next step is to repair the leak and properly dry the interior to stop the problem returning.
Many leaks like this are hidden and can go unnoticed for a long time until the interior becomes wet.

💦 Range Rover Discovery – Rear Screen Leak 💦
This Range Rover Discovery came to us with water getting into the rear of the vehicle. In this case, the rear screen was leaking, allowing water to run down into the boot area.
Problems like this often lead to:
⚠️ Wet carpets and soundproofing
⚠️ Condensation on the windows
⚠️ Mould and unpleasant smells
In the video we show where the leak is coming from, and we’ll be carrying out the repair before properly drying and cleaning the affected areas.
With water ingress, the key is always finding and fixing the leak first, otherwise the problem simply comes back.

💦 Leaking Fiat Abarth 595 – Another Water Ingress Case 💦
This Fiat Abarth 595 came to us with a water ingress problem. Damp interiors can quickly lead to wet carpets, mould, condensation on the windows and unpleasant smells if the leak isn’t properly identified and repaired.
In the video we show the issue and the affected areas. The next step is to trace the exact source of the leak and carry out the repair, followed by properly drying and cleaning the interior.
Fixing the leak is always the first and most important step before any drying or interior work can begin.
