I've known for a while that water gets into the engine compartment just look at the paint on any F-bodys driver strut tower.

? where doe's water enter the engine compartment?

and is there a solution to this apparnt leak?

I've raised the hood and poured water on the driver side windshield and observed water it pours down into the section where the hood cable is.

Thanks

I don't understand.....you believe the engine compartment is supposed to be sealed & waterproof???

I think its normal. Last time i washed my car i did the engine bay first, and after washing the car i had some water on the sides.n Ticked me off! What can ya do? It's a F-body.
