Default Floor behind driver's side seat constantly wet!!

What the hell is it? I soaked it up with some cardboard when I realized it was wet when I was making my RSD, but then the next few days after, I checked it and it was soaked again....Starting to really upset me.

Does this happen when it rains? Or even on sunny days?

Is it a vert and the roof is leaking on rainy days?

I JUST installed new carpet last spring, which is why it's so frustrating. Nothing was out of the ordinary and it's not a vert.

It does rain a ton here (Washington State), but i felt/saw no rain coming through. Only guess right now is that maybe the carpet was wet from rain previously and it's pooling in that area????

I have had this same problem but on my passenger side. I noticed it for a week it seemed to get worse and worse. For some reason my coolant light came on. It was my heater core leaking and puddling up on the carpet. That was my problem but it was on the passenger side. I had a Jeep that my driverside carpet was always wet. I undercoated the entire driverside and the problem went away. Good luck!

best thing I can say -- is lay down papertowels and try to follow the trail to find where its coming from.

Anytime good luck! Ps heater cores suck to change. Took me about 8 hours for my first time.
