^ THIS was my problem.


It's really easy to get to it. Pop the hood, take that black plastic piece off the passenger side. I think the battery cover too.


OP. If it's under warranty, take it in... If not, you're FUCKÉD. Don't touch the grommet because you'll break it more.
And if it is that grommet... PM me. But plan on selling the car. This is an unfixable problem without replacing the entire wiring loom.

Unless I undo all the wiring which I prefer not to do, is there another way to seal that grommet by adding some sort of material to it?
