There is a leak coming from somewhere and it's not the sun roof or window.
Everytime it rains, there is about 2 inches of water standing on the floor of the drivers side. Where can this water come from.

CONDITION SUMMARY
Situation: Water may enter the cabin area in one or more of the following scenarios:
Through the headliner in the proximity of the driver's or front passenger's head, possibly dripping onto the top of the instrument panel.
Behind the A-pillar trim, through the fascia and possibly into the front footwell. Removing the fascia end closing panel, water ingress in this area can be identified by rust-colored marks on the instrument panel reinforcement.
Through the headliner around the rear of the roof opening panel.
Into the left and right-hand-side rear footwell.
Water ingress from the above may be caused by poorly routed / blocked / kinked / twisted front roof opening panel drain tubes or a badly fitted front or rear door water shedder.
Action: In the event of a customer concern of any of the above, refer to the Diagnostic Procedure outlined below to inspect and rectify the source(s) of the water ingress.
