How to dry the carpet in the fastest way?
Today I park in front a kopi shop when the rain came, kopi shop extend their shelter to my car causing heavy flow of rain onto my car engine compartment & water slip into my ECU ! I know is common on E36 but I ignored it thinking for 10mins !
But Engine stalled while travelling on CTE but managed to restart & drive with 2nd/3rd gear to BVO like riding a horse haha ... heng heng dry the ECU everything back to normal but now carpet wet , how to dry it in the fastest way? any recommendation ? any workshop help to dry?

For E36 guys; This problem will not happen with heavy rain, my case due to the heavy water flow gather by the shelter & direct down on my left side bonnet.

sorry to hear of your problem. suggest you use a very strong hairdryer and hope for hot sun to dry in it the open air. the dampness can really smell

Newspaper with weights on top n change the papers every 1/2 hour till carpet is dry.

get several Thirsty Hippo type of dehumidifier or Drying Silica from Camera shops and put in your car after the carpet is relatively dry.

On the E36, it's becos the water channel got choked.

On the front mud flap area, near the front tyre, try opening the little screw and pry the plastic out a little and run water from the windscreen to get rid of the leaves that is stucked inside.

I tried it last time on my car and for a full 10 minutes, leaves r still coming out
