Dust may leak into the vehicle where water will not. This happens particularly in the lower portion of the interior.

Forward motion of the vehicle can create a slight vacuum which pulls air and dust into the vehicle.

In order to determine the location of dust leaks, perform the following steps:

1. Remove the mats from the floor.
2. Remove the mats from the kick panel.
3. Remove the insulation from the floor.
4. Remove the insulation from the kick panel.
5. Drive the vehicle on a dusty road.
6. Examine the interior.

Dust in the shape of a small cone or slit will usually be found at the point of leakage.

7. Mark the points of leakage.
8. Shine bright lamps on the underside of the floor and the cowl.

Ensure that the interior is darkened when performing this step.

9. Have an assistant mark any points inside of the vehicle for any points where the light shines through.

•	Inspect the weld joints.

•	Inspect the body mounts.

10. Seal any leaks with an air-drying, body-sealing compound.
