ok, so i drove in a really bad rain storm today, was about 10 min lets say from work back home, all on regular roads with 30-35 mph speed limits, since it was raining and everyone on the road thinks there going to die if they go a mile over 15, i was going slow. i get home, rain stops, i decided to go back out. pull out of drive way, down block, and right before i turned onto the main road, i turned my radio off to answer my cellphone. so i made the turn, during, i hear a sloshing noise. i said wtf was that so at the red light i turned around and my back seat was literally flooded, i had 1 inch of visable water ontop of my rug. i made a u-turn flew home and grabbed the shop vac, strangely, driver and pasanger were soaked, and only the left half of the back seat was wet, the right side was bone dry. i have no clue what caused this, but i know it didnt leak in from a window, my ceelieng and walls are dry. if it came in from the bottom, where are there access points so i can seal them up with some silicone.

 

I remember a time when it used torain here...

 

How the hell would it have leaked so badly inside if it was from underneath? I understand a little wet spots here and there, but a full inch of water? Were you going scuba diving in your car?

 

no but trust it was raining really hard, i mean i could barely see, the entrance to my street was flooded to about 3 inches, yesterday it rained bad too, and i was in the mcdonnalds parking lot, and i kid you not the water had to be even with the bottom of my bumper

 

Wow, that sounds really bad. Woohoo for global warming?

 

The best way to determine the leak location is to take off the floormats and pour some water in the carpet again

 

then go underneath the car and see if it leaks. Triple post ftw!

 

ehh, i just shop vac'd my car, and mildew isnt one of my favorite smells

 

wow i just realized this afternoon i have the same problem we got a ton of rain last night and today and when i went out to my car it smelled horrible and i didnt notice there was water till i looked in the backseat there wasnt as much as u but everything on my drivers side was soaking wet im pretty sure it was coming from behind my dead pedal because last time i washed my car i saw some water there and thought nothing of it so im gonna figure it out tom. morn but if you find anything lemme know maybe we have the same problem?

 

its possible, tomorrow ill pull that pedal off my car and see if thats the problem
