1 - 7 of 7 Posts
No did leave the door open and I just bought it a week ago so I don’t know all the seals look fine I was more asking where the drains are for the sun roof or wind shield because EVERYTHING I look up is about the passenger side where as mine is wet on the drivers side so would that lean towards more a seal or some drain clogged
No I didn’t leave anything open 🤦♂️

first test is the smell test:
if it smells like coolant it's coming from the heater.
if it doesnt smell like coolant, it's coming from the moonroof or the drivers door window or windshield or drivers door seal.
second test is garden hose:
dry the floor out. remove floor mats, park in garage with electric fan on high aimed at the floor, or parked in hot sun with windows cracked
once the floor is dry get a hose and aim it around the windshield. check for leaks. then do the moon roof. then do the driver window. then do the driver door crack all the way around. each step check for moisture. wait 15 minutes between each step.double check for moisture
take your time with each step and be thorough. if you wet all at once then you will have no idea where it's leaking

Ok will do I’ll keep you guys updated thanks man for actually answering 👍👍
IF you have a sunroof, it’s common for the sunroof drains to clog.
Once the drains for the sunroof are clogged, and it rains, the water overfills the roof cavity, and poors into the car.
In the corner somewhere under the glass, should be a drain (one or two). To test whether it’s clogged, open the sunroof, and run water(slow rate) into the cavity between the roof and the inner aluminum headliner layer. IF the water starts filling up, then it’s clogged.
To clear the clog, locate the drain, and slowly/carefully put a metal hanger or solid wire in it to clear dirt build up.
