im pretty sure i can help. lol. most likely u have a hole in ur fire wall. this happens to alot of people. look under ur hood on ur fire wall n see if u have any random holes. if so...just get something to plug the hole. pretty simple. right? i hope thats all it is.

Could be a sunroof drain leaking into the car.

I had this same problem at one point, right above my hood release cable. There is a sunroof drain that detaches at this location.

Next time you have the leak, open the vent on the drivers side that allows outside air to enter. Then take a flashlight and look in the vent and see if there is water inside. If there is water than that is your source.

i have the same exact problem in my sedan... i still havent found the problem... it may be the windshield, because the seals do look loose, but i will most definitely check the firewall suggestion...

I had the same problem too...

Mine was initially caused by a leaking antenna plate, or rather a missing antenna with an intact antenna plate, leaving a nice hole there. That lead to a much bigger problem.

Hope yours isn't as serious as mine was:

i have been experiencing a leak that leaks down thru my hood latch and all over my floor... my carpet all over the driver's side is completely soaked... i was just wondering if 1: Will this cause any rust or damage, and 2: Can I get the seals fixed instead of replacing the whole window??
