81 300D Prone to leak? (floorboard rust problems)
I've heard that older MB's are prone to leak. Other day my friend jumped in the passenger side seat and said the seat felt loose and lopsided. Lo and behold, upon examination,
the floorboard along the passenger door is rusting out! The
rear right bolt for the seat had completely busted through the
floorboard. I think I can at least bolt a plate in it's place, but I can't seem to be able to find where the leak comes from. Anybody know where these models are prone to leak? In fact it rained a lot last night, and I don't see a wet spot in there. I wouldn't think the rust came from outside in, but maybe I'm wrong.
Thanks, Phill
