Found water in rear passenger footwell under floor mat
I have been searching the forum and I cannot pinpoint the source of the water. Opened the ECU compartment under the cabin filter and there was no water in there. Also opened the drivers side brake servo area to find it dry as well.
Wondering if it could be the sunroof drains or something else? Was told those drain to the wheel wells outside. What drain ends in the cabin? Any ideas?

If it so just damp might be from air conditioner opening under the front seat or you may forgot to pull up your window

I have had water issues 2x... once was the storm drain under the e-box up front and the second time it was the vapor barrier in the doors failing, which led to water on the passenger floor as well. Be careful to dry it quickly and thoroughly as mold will set in, but more importantly there are numerous sensors and modules along with the main wiring harness that runs across that floor from back to front.

Not just damp, pretty darn wet. It was after taking my car through the car wash. I was hoping to find some water under the ECU but it seems to be dry... Maybe that is the water that made its way from there.
