Default Passenger side floor mat soaked

04' D2.

So, I thought the heater core was broken but its holding coolant.

I noticed the wetness after a car wash, my wife thought she spilt some Peligrino water but the amount was too much.

Then we had some rains.

So, I am pretty sure its the sunroof drain hoses, but the headliner is not wet. Could the hoses only be draining/leaking at the floor level?

Where should I start?

Thanks

sounds like your windshield cowl is leaking. if the cowl is not sealed to the windshield properly it will leak down the fresh air intake and out the blower fan.

x2 on this. I ended up nipping a tiny bit of the ends of the rubber outlets on either side of the transmission to keep them from clogging again. The foam padding under the carpet is like a sponge, I would remove the plastic door threshold on that side and lift up the rug a little. It took me two days with an air mover and a dehumidifier running inside to dry it out.

Mine was the sunroof drain, between the screw that had the hose crimped and a hard 90 that cut off all flow. Cost me a headliner and radio.

If it's coming in during or after heavy rain and through or around the A or B post or around the front courtesy light it's more than likely the sunroof(s) drains or the seal of the frame to the roof leaking.

If it's just appearing from under the dash it's probably the A/C drains blocked under the truck (common problem) or the seal around the windscreen lower down.

If it's been raining heavy you may have left the passenger window open
