Hi
94 Coupe, US spec.
It leaks in heavy rain or washing the car right in front of the passenger door. Pretty sure it drips from above.
The battery box is pristine, battery area drain is wide open, and I can feed a weedwhacker string from the sunroof drain
through to the ground easily. Door weatherstrip seems OK.
Either I'm missing something obvious or a drain hose is disconnected somewhere or the leak is referred from another
area across the cowl area.
Any ideas?

dribble
thanks
Jon

Check under the windshield perimeter rubber trim gasket. One of my previous cars must have had an windshield replacement done because the adhesive had developed enough of a gap to let water leak through in situations you described.

My my sunroof will drip even though the drain tubes are good. I haven’t done an exhaustive analysis but I’m chalking it up to some kind of capillary action. Seems to drip near the front corners. In my case the drip hits the seats

Till you figure it out, get a car cover!

Are the front pollen/cabin air filters shot or missing? Could rain water while driving enter from there and down into the footwell? I've seen this happrn on other vehicles.

Thanks for the replies, will get some debugging time this weekend to pinpoint the source.

the door check pin mount or wire loom boot for the door are also possibilities.

Bonjour,
c'est la réponse pour le futur lecteur.
J'ai le même problème. Lors de la pluie, l'eau entre à l'intérieur de la porte parce que mon étanchéité était HS. L'eau va à l'intérieur de la protection (film plastique) et après être sortie par clip de porte.
