Everytime it rains, my passenger side floor boards fill up with water. I have had this in the glass shop twice, and they tell me that they could see it coming in from somewhere around the heater box on the inside, but cannot tell where it is coming in from. I have ran a water hose over the windsheild and cowl, and cannot seem to find where the water is coming from. It only does it when it rains, so I'm eliminating the heater core. Have you ever heard of this happening (or a problem) with this model, or year? Any information would be very helpful

ther r tow holes wher the sunroof is. Open the sunroof and look in the front left and right corners you will see them unless they r clogged up like mine was. once u find them just use a wire coat hanger to clean them out then poor water around sunroof. You should hear the water running out from under the car on both sides but that is just the first thing u have to do. the leak its self was coming from the front of the tracks the sunroof moves on it will be two black corner pieces. Just kaulk them up and you should be good. Couse the water backs up then leaks ther if the drain holes r clogged.
