I'm hoping someone can help me figure this one out. Somehow my front floor panels are gettting wet when it rains. It's not just damp but actually soaked. Does anyone know where the water could be getting in or anything that i should check from cracks or anything of the sort?


thanks

Water has a nasty habit of spreading itself around, particularly at speed - it could be coming from anywhere. However, try your windshield first, I've done this to a couple cars over the years and it has never failed: Get a tube of clear silicone sealer, remove the trim around the windshield, clean and seal it with the silicone sealer. Odds are your problem will disappear.

What, me worry??

Seems to me that I've read that some silicone sealers are corrosive and that there is a product made just for this purpose. Leak around the windshield is most likely source of your problem. Do a search and also check the tech articles and archives on this site. POst it again in the body section.

try checking the floor pan drains the seem seal is old it may be leaking also the windshield is a good bet if it is wet all the way up the fire wall
