passenger carpet wet, typical causes?
Need some help please, my passenger carpet is getting wet and I am not having much luck finding source of water entry point. I took hose and sprayed down front outside area, could not see any water coming in, A/C seems to drip outside just fine.
Any ideas?
Any ideas?
Sunroof drain clogged or drain tube is broken or missing. The front plastic cowl under the windshield is leaking. Heater core is leaking? You would be running hot, have no heat, and the windshield would be fogging up when running your defrosters.
Feel the carpet with your hand, does it smell like coolant?
If you have an air compressor you can pressurize the system that way. However if you didn't start overheating and the windshield didn't fog it may not be your heater core but you need to rule it out. I replaced mine this past summer so I'll give you all the advice I can if that's the case.
You can also take some of the plastic junk off the passenger side of the console and see if you can see coolant.

And back to AC drain, my D1 has one on each side, so if one is plugged, it could overflow while you still get some drip out the bottom. As for shop air to pressure test with, use a light hand. 15 PSI is all you need, the cap vents at 18 PSI.
I just cleaned out A/C drain tube, not much in there. I used a q tip like this post here -

Now on the roof looking, I have a full rack so I'm hoping I can inspect the hoses with it on.
As for leaks, it is water.
When it rains it soaks the passenger carpet side so I am guessing the passenger side hose may be clogged since the a/c drain tube was not full.
Just to answer jfall's questins, no Carwash, no sprinkler system hitting it, no teens driving it..
