    Hi.

    I recently purchased a used car, 06 Opel Corsa, and am unfortunately clueless when it comes to cars.

    Every time it rains heavy, when I go to take off after the car has been sitting in the rain, I get a trail of water into the car underneath the passenger sides dashboard, I can hear the leak too. I'm also getting fog on all windows on the inside.
    Has anyone got any idea as to what this may be? And should I bring it back to the dealer. Is it a big issue, money wise?

    Thanks in advance.
    Alan.

    Check on the outside between the bonnet and the windscreen to see if it is full of leaves or other gunk that might be blocking the drains.

    Has it got a sunroof? Sometimes these have drain hoses that get blocked or dislodged.

    Try running a hose over the car to try to see where the leak is coming from. If it is not something simple you should go back to the dealer.
