Spey,
No links, the source was Ch 9 news and I only caught the end of it.
I am not a Qantas basher so don't go looking for this stuff, just thought it ironic that the 2nd one also had a problem.
Surprised how quickly they got the aircraft back on line, thought it would take longer.

There was dirty brown water pouring out of the galley near me in row 79 on a QF A380 on the way to LAX late July last year, though the crew mostly kept it at bay with what must have been 50kg of paper towel; only a relatively small amount ended up down the aisle.
The FA seated in the jumpseat right across from me at the time told me it was not uncommon, though I'm guessing not many of the plumbing dramas they've had previously are quite as bad as this one!

If it is " not un common ", then doesn't that mean a continuous problem that they haven't yet solved ?
You have to ask why ?
After all, the water can come from certain places.

Maybe someone can answer but how to you dry carpet out that quickly, even industrial carpet that doesn't or might not soak up as much water ?
And that's before all the other items people have mentioned.

They flew OQD to DXB and left in parked in the sun for a day to dry out - weather forecast for Dubai yesterday was maximum 46° C and minimum 33° C. Probably smells like a wet dog on the inside.
