I flooded my navara on the weekend up to the centre console. Now when I drive I have a sloshing sound. I have tried to tell myself it's the fuel but I cant ever remember hearing the fuel in the tank before. And the sound is noisy and interior sounding. I have searched for cavities and cant find any. The car is just pressed steel, all single layer. EG, where the rear
seat buldge is under the beanch
seat, it's hollow under the car. Does anyone know of any cavities in the navara (the older one not the brand newie) that could retain water, probably only accessable (meaning able to be filled) from the inside of the car. I would really like to drill some holes and empty my onboard water carrying tank. Thanks.

Yeah car is fine, I just want access to this new water container. The doors are empty, its easy to
check cause you just wave em around a bit. The sloshing comes from accelerating and braking. Kind of near the rear of the cab behind the
seat. I hope I dont have to use the evaporation method, it's winter and that will take some time. perhaps it will freeze solid and provide me with a massive onbord esky.

Is there a storage tub under the rear carpet? They can fill easily and have their holes blocked by leaves or papers/plastic that you may have left in
the tub.
I did a similar thing to my vehicle, except I have a largish spare tyre tub. Boy, does that hold some water.................
