Hey,

I've been having some problems with my celi leaking on the drivers side. I can't figure out where the water is coming from. The entire driver side floor area, as well as the driver side back seat area are soaked.

Does anyone know if some pineneedles might have clogged something with the heater? Or what? I don't have any wheel well liners (the plastic things inside the wheel well), so would that have anything to do with it? Does anyone have any ideas? Please let me know

the same thing is happening to me...it is my windshield, the upper driver's corner. If I stand outside the car and reach in and push it out, I can see it move. Wind noise is louder now too. I'll be changing that myself in a few months.

aka heater core. you would be losing coolant of that is what is causing it tho, and your windows would fog up very easily with the heater on and you would also be able to smell it.

do a search, there's a few posts about this. check the area around your sunroof and around the doors, there are water passages for drainage that run through the car and alot of it is rubber lines which can become damaged or blocked.

true and also the heater core is located above the passenger side foot area, not the driver's side. When the heater core leaks, the pass side gets 95% of the coolant and it is hard to miss.

I had the same problem.. Found it to be leaking through the door wires entering the car. Just added some sealant and hadn't had a problem since..

yeah my car does this too. I noticed it happen alot after a bad rain. I was talking to a windshield guy that had to replace my supra windshield before I bought it. He said some sealant opened up at the base of the windshield (behind the plastic by the wipers). just run some weather sealant where glass meets metal under the plastic. That fixed me up. thumbsup.gif
