Scenic 3, 1.5dci , 2012.
Water drain under the windshield is made of something that looks like a pressed felt. It's soaking water and started to sag a little. I would like to glue the edges together and impregnate it so it doesn't get wet. There is some mildew developing on it.
Any ideas how to fix it?
I'm thinking about glueing it with some silicone and wrapping it with something like Sika multiseal.
What bothers me is the heat from the engine. The thing is directly above the turbo. There is some heat shield but I don't know how hot does it get, especially during the DPF regen cycle. Unintentionally did turn off the car a couple of times in the middle of it and there was a little smell and heat coming from under the bonnet.
Sika is self adhesive bitumen with a layer of aluminium foil but rated only for up to 80°C.
