Hello, a strange one this, when i brake reasonably hard i can hear quite clearly the sound of water gushing forward underneath the passenger side sill. I passed it of thinking it was water inside the side protection steps {of which it is not} any ideas !

We have had this up before and I cannot recall the outcome but I am sure it was water in the sill, there should be drain bungs underneath

Ive had it before, the drain plugs in the door wells become clogged and water in them cant escape. Look under the car on each side, near wheel arches at each door, there is a plug/hole which becomes clogged, take out the crap then you need to drive the car up at an angle for it to drain out.
