Hi

I had my 206cc (02reg) serviced a fortnight ago and the mechanic commented that the air filter was soaking wet when he replaced it. Checking today I found that the air filter was again soaking wet. Does anyone have any ideas what might be causing it and more importantly what I nead to do to fix it?

Hi Barry, welcome to the forum.
See

The above explains two probable reasons. I'd check reaps suggestion first.

another reason could be that sometimes folk don't close the air filter housing properly when replacing the filter.

Many thanks for the info. I'll check the bottom of the air filter pipe this weekend

Once again many thanks
