Maybe running down holes inside the "A" Pillars?

Rusted out plenum in the engine bay?

Roof gutters rot out quick. Normally front corners. Worth a look

I lost a grommit on the bulkhead once in wifes Rav4. It filled up with water - devil to find ! Toyota put a whole new carpet set in it. Worth a look though - they say water doesnt go uphill, but it does !

Or you take the route i took with my old Marlin - drill a hole in the floor. :)

Ha ha....I had a great old Peugeot 406 that always had water in the spare wheel well in the boot. Drilled a small hole as you say...problem solved! :D

1st rule - it’s only silly if it doesn’t work. Water in car ? Drill hole to let water out. :thumbright:
