My '84 Westy has WFFS, I've always assumed it was the windshield leaking and that I need to replace the windshield seal. I've never looked into it though, it's almost always keep in the garage.

Hi, All -

We've had the worst and wettest July on record, and ol' Blu, our 87 Westy has developed wet front floor syndrome, also known as WFFS. WFFS is characterized by puddles in the mats in both the driver and passenger sides, which over time has advanced to a state of perpetually wet carpet and underlay.

Something appears to be amiss...is there some kind of gasket or seal behind the grill that could be out of place or otherwise AFU?

Any advice, experience would be welcome. -- Larry Innes PO BOX 2156 Stn B Goose Bay, Labrador A0P 1E0 Canada 87 Westfalia GL "Blu"
