Water leaking inside the car floor from heater radiator on the right hand. When car gets hot the windscreen steams up and heat comes through the vent on the right side.

Yes, that sounds like a heater core is leaking. Remove both heater hoses from the core and get a small piece of pipe about 5/8 or 16mm and connect the hoses together using hose clamps. Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Cheers, Ken
