Water Leak Interior, Driver Side
Ive noticed for a while that I have a leak on the driver side of the car. I always thought i had tracked in some water and thats what it was. But recently I noticed a BUNCH of water under my driver seat. I had a couple tools under there and they were rusted dead. Today it rained, so before i went anywhere I felt everywhere I could for some water where it was leaking from. Around the window, windshield, sunroof, and even back window. I cannot find where its leaking from, and its driving me nuts. Anyone have any idea where its coming from or where to check? And by the way the cars a 1995 Civic EX.

You could take it to a drive in car wash, and watch your seals as the high pressure sprayers are hitting the car. It should be easy to see where it's leaking from then.

Your sunroof has three drain tubes that are on your sunroof, two lead to the the front underneath the car next the the front left and right wheels. The third ones drains out to the left rear. You can check if your drain holes are clogged by pouring water down the sunroof drain holes and park in a dry place like a garage or something. If no water come through the drain holes their clogged. so your gonna have to get an air compressor, rent or go to a place that has one to shoot air through them to unclogged the drain tubes. Be careful not to shoot the tubes out though...

Re: Water Leak Interior, Driver Side
but another way to see if you got a leak where ever you think the leak is, s to get a holes and spray it with water and let it run for like 15, 20, 30 mins and take your carpet out and lay cardboard around the area that its leaking to find the leak. Example, you think it could be coming from the windshield, you get the holes lay it on top of the car with it pouring on your windshield and get some beers and sit in your car to find out where it's leaking from. If its not leaking there that mean the windshields not your problem, move to where else you think and try there....

Re: Water Leak Interior, Driver Side
Well i went through a car wash and its defiantly leaking through my sunroof. What is the best way to clean the tubes? Dump the headliner and blow air though all the tubes?
