Water ingress.
Hi all my 09 x type now has an indoor swimming pool in the drivers foot well. It looks like it's coming in from somewhere on the drivers side bulk head but I can't see where. Ive been under the dash and it's running down the back of the silver box mounted under the electrical connection plugs above the pedals. I can't seem to remove these or the sound proofing to check further.
Anyone know how these come out or possible locations for the leak.
Cheers Lee.

It shouldn't flood in there. Sounds like the drain holes are clogged. This might help you. https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...esolved-80084/

you may want to remove that silver box. It is the TCM (transmission control module). If it gets wet over time it will short out and the car will go into limp mode. It happened to me on the highway at about 70 miles per hour. It sounds like a bomb goes off, the car slows fast and down *****, and every warning light you could engine lights up. I removed mine and covered it in a plastic bag then bolted it back in. Make sure you do it when you have a day or two off of work because bending under that dash will do a number on the old back.
