passenger footwell wet

[Loperamide]

There is a water leak via the glove box when it rains. I had a packet of tissues inside the glovebox and they were wet, so where could the water be coming into the car from?

I have tested the sunroof drains and they are not blocked. The door seals are dry apart bottom left corner of the footwell (see pic you can see the seal on the left hand side), and its not coming from the vapor barrier as the top of the floormat is wet where the water has been dripping from the glove box.

Please help!

I think that there is an electronics box back right as you look into the engine bay from the front which is directly above the glovebox.  Could be a damaged grommet/seal under it.

Eh up,

Have you tested the actual windscreen at all. I am sure I recall reading on here there can be a chance the bonds fail.

Also try the pollen filter drains at the front scuttle to see if it’s tracking from there somehow via the vent system, these drains sometimes get blocked with crud and leaves, soaks in via the pollen micrfilter

Hope you find it I had a leak in the same areas took me a while to track it to the door seal, clearly not where yours is.
good luck

How did you check the sun roof drains, if you just poured water in the s/r channels and seen it come out underneath the vehicle that’s not a good enough check. If the plastic pipe comes of the the s/r metal pipe it rests on the end of it, when you pour the water everything can seem fine. Start driving and the movement/vibration/bumps means the water is going down the A pillar to the floor. Just a thought if you don’t find something else
