Coolant and water leak in cabin

[Benjer182]

Hello ive got yet more questions but I'll give you some back story first, so here goes firstly my radiator was leaking so I replaced it and all was ok for a week then the water pump gave up and started leaking, so I was still driving about before I got chance to fit the new one this week but as I was on my way to the unit to change it, it finally gave up and the car started to get hot even though it had plenty of coolant so I pulled over and got recovered to my mates unit and changed the pump, then yesterday I decided to take the carpet out to sort a water leak and clean the filthy carpet. So I fixed the driver side leak but noticed coolant on the passenger side of the tunnel which from reading about would appear to be the heater valve is that correct ? But I also have a water leak as in rain water in the very front left corner of the passenger footwell from up behind the glove box somewhere, any ideas what this would be from ? The car is rhd
Hope this all makes sense thanks in advance

All these cooling system failures suggests that your car is still using one of the early type 1.4 bar pressure caps on the coolant bottle, that still hasn't been changed under safety recall, nearly twenty years ago. The replacement caps usually have a yellow disc on the bottom.
Water leak up behind the glovebox will be a displaced main wiring loom grommet, if you're lucky. Otherwise it's likely to be a lack of metal surrounding the grommet (rust) or water coming down inside the double skinned top part of the bulkhead from the scuttle box. Check the condition of the RH stud that holds the glovebox hinge.

Okay thanks for the help the only thing I forgot to mention that I should have mentioned is I have a m50b25 engine and the radiator from a e36 328 in my car

Yes, it might help if you mentioned that all the parts in question, except one, are completely different from those that are standard on an E30.
