my carpet gets when when it started to rain the past 2 weeks in the valley (SJC). its only on the passenger side. the front gets wet. and the back gets wet too. what can be causing this??? like a hole on the bottom of the car or something?

 

probably a door seal more likely

 

Try and see if you can get a friend to run some water with a hose on the outside of your car while you sit inside and see if you can spot it, this is what I did and sealed the leak.

 

probably under the cowl

 

+1

 

I have the exact same problem. In my EK its coming from under the dash on the passenger side. I'm not looking forward to pulling crap out to seal it but it will soon be a weekend project.

+1 on the hose idea. I will be doing something similar.

 

its not coming from the top. cause i drive for work. i think it comes from the bottom? hole perhaps?

 

i had same problem with my car but driver side
and removed the carpet from the car and saw small hole by the fender and frame of the car thats how water was getting in got this fixed and now im good try and see wheres the water coming in
good luck

 

it could be the drain tube from your sunroof.. i had this problem and turned out the bottom of the drain tube was hanging in my car and not in the hole its supposed to be in.. good luck

 

theres a drain tube? where is it located. its a 2000 ex btw coupe

 

Its most likely your heater core.
